Announcing the winners of our Peeps Diorama Contest!

Our annual diorama contest really took off this year, as there were 40 entries! Wow! We opened up the theme to include not just books but also movies, history, current events, videogames, or anything (as long as it is family-friendly). And our peeps artists responded with some amazing ideas! Prizes were peeps merchandise (like giant stuffed peep toys) and $20, $15 and $10 Target giftcards, courtesy of the Friends of the Library. Photos of all of the entries can be found here and the winners in each category are:
