We can't resist showing you this wonderful picture of Markie Scholz and some of her Dragons are Too Seldom puppets, taken at Southside Library during the program on June 22nd. No-o-o-o, the reader Buddies won't be as cute as Markie and the puppets, but they'll probably be as much fun to hang out with...
