SUMMARY:Mud Season Speaker Series - Vermont Reads Book Discussion: THE LIGHT PIRATE
DESCRIPTION:Mud Season Speaker Series \nThe Bonnyvale Environmental Education Center and the Brooks Memorial Library invite you to a series of programs based upon the Vermont Reads 2025-26 selection\, The Light Pirate\, with the themes of climate resilience through community and the unstoppable power of the natural world. \nMonday\, April 13\, 6:30 – 8:00 PM \nVermont Reads Book Discussion: The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton \nJoin us for a thoughtful\, guided conversation centered on The Light Pirate\, a novel that follows one girl’s life as climate change reshapes Florida’s coast—and the meaning of home\, resilience\, and community. Rachael Cohen\, environmental writer and editor\, will facilitate this 90-minute discussion\, creating space to reflect together on the book’s themes\, characters\, and emotional impact. \nParticipants will explore themes such as climate adaptation and how people respond—individually and collectively—to environmental change. All readers are welcome\, whether the book moved you deeply or left you with lingering questions. Come prepared to listen\, reflect\, and engage in a meaningful exchange inspired by this powerful and timely novel. \nAbout The Light Pirate: \nNamed after a catastrophic storm\, Wanda is born into a world that’s rapidly changing. Rising sea levels and devastating weather patterns transform her coastal Florida town. As she moves from childhood to adulthood\, Wanda adapts to this remade landscape\, finding adventure\, love\, and purpose in a place largely abandoned by civilization. \nTold in four parts—power\, water\, light\, and time—The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton is a meditation on the beauty and violence of an untamable wilderness. It considers the dissolution of the human-made world\, and helps us see how human connection\, adaptability\, and a little bit of magic might guide us to a new future. \nThanks to Vermont Humantites\, a limited amount of copies are available at the Circulation Desk. \n\nVermont Reads Speaker Bureau BIO: \nRachael Cohen has been a freelance editor specializing in environmental and regional studies\, a teacher of writing\, literature\, and natural history\, a caller of contra dances\, and a farm hand. She has a Bachelor of Arts in English from Cornell University and a Master of Science in Environmental Education from the Audubon Expedition Institute/Lesley University. When she’s not teaching for the University of Michigan’s New England Literature Program\, held each spring at a camp in New Hampshire\, she’s a caretaker in southern Vermont. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:A Lifeline for Difficult Times:  The Taking Solace Series
DESCRIPTION:Starting last November\, Center for Solace (formerly Brattleboro Area Hospice) & Brooks Memorial Library\nwere inspired to begin an 8-month collaboration on the first Wednesday of each month\, from 6-8 pm. \nCome join us for a wide range of conversations\non tender topics\, from Death Cafes\, to film & discussion nights\,\nspeaker panels\, a climate-grief dialogue\, and more. \nTogether we’ll explore some of the challenges of being alive in our time.\nFor instance\, how might we navigate illness\, caregiving\, or loss?\nOr beyond that\, face a much broader anguish for our fragile planet itself?\nBecause we know that at least one form of solace\nstems from staying connected. \nTo quote poet David Whyte\, “Solace is not meant to be\nan answer\, but an invitation\, through the door of pain and difficulty\,\nto the depth of suffering and simultaneous beauty in the world\nthat the strategic mind by itself cannot grasp or make sense of.”   \nContinuing our monthly Taking Solace series at Brooks Memorial Library\, join us on April 8 from 6-8 pm to watch the award-winning 2022 documentary Living in the Time of Dying: Meeting the Truth of the Climate Crisis\, by Australian filmmaker Michael Shaw. After the film there will be an hour for facilitated discussion on how we are feeling and how we can stay connected\, with Michael Shaw attending remotely. \nAnd to find out about further topics\, please follow\nCenter for Solace or Brooks Memorial Library on Facebook:\ncenterforsolace.org\, or brookslibraryvt.org.

SUMMARY:Mud Season Speaker Series - Salamander Tea Party with BEEC
DESCRIPTION:Mud Season Speaker Series \nThe Bonnyvale Environmental Education Center and the Brooks Memorial Library invite you to a series of programs based upon the Vermont Reads 2025-26 selection\, The Light Pirate\, with the themes of climate resilience through community and the unstoppable power of the natural world. \nThe Light Pirate \nNamed after a catastrophic storm\, Wanda is born into a world that’s rapidly changing. Rising sea levels and devastating weather patterns transform her coastal Florida town. As she moves from childhood to adulthood\, Wanda adapts to this remade landscape\, finding adventure\, love\, and purpose in a place largely abandoned by civilization. \nTold in four parts—power\, water\, light\, and time—The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton is a meditation on the beauty and violence of an untamable wilderness. It considers the dissolution of the human-made world\, and helps us see how human connection\, adaptability\, and a little bit of magic might guide us to a new future. \nGet a copy at the library! \n  \nMonday\, February 9\, 2026 from 6:30-8 \nPumpkin and Pye: How Beavers Keep Us Cool \nPumpkin was born in a stone culvert under Upper Dummerston Road and orphaned when his mother was hit by a car. Pye was attacked and badly injured by a dog as a yearling. BEEC naturalist Patti Smith will tell how these young beavers came together and into her care. Photos and videos will illustrate the adventures that ensued. \nPatti maintains that beavers are not just lovable\, they are important. She will also talk about their crucial role in holding water on a warming planet and mitigating floods. Find out how communities are solving beaver conflicts in ways that allow beavers to keep us cool. \n  \nMonday\, March 9\, 2026 from 6:30-8 \nThirty-Eight: The Hurricane That Transformed New England \nA hurricane will never surprise us again. But that’s what happened to the people of New England on September 21\, 1938. Without any warning\, the most destructive weather event ever to hit the Northeast pummeled the coast and blasted its way to Vermont and New Hampshire with torrential rain\, flooding\, and sustained winds over 100 miles per hour. \nStephen Long tells the story of New England’s Katrina\, focusing on the devastation to the region’s forests and the daunting challenge facing New Englanders still in the throes of the Great Depression. His presentation is richly illustrated with archival photos of storm damage and the unprecedented recovery operation\, making the storm and its aftermath come alive. A journalist and co-founder of Northern Woodlands magazine\, Stephen Long is the author of Thirty-Eight: The Hurricane that Transformed New England. \n  \n Monday\, March 30 at 7 pm \nSalamander Crossing Brigades: help save salamanders \nAs our planet heats up amphibians are vulnerable. A group of important amphibians in our region depend upon temporary ponds—vernal pools—for egg-laying. These pools can dry much too fast in drought years. They are also vulnerable when they must cross roads to reach their breeding habitat. You can help! Join a Salamander Crossing Brigade. Getting adult amphibians safely across roads is a big way we can make their populations resilient. \nThe Bonnyvale Environmental Education Center has been organizing crossing brigades at known crossing sites for decades. Come to the library to learn more about the amazing amphibians that head for vernal pools in the spring and what you can do to help them. \n  \nSaturday\, April 4\, 10:30-12pm \nSalamander Tea Party with BEEC \nEnjoy salamander story books read by our salamander mascot\, snack on salamander cookies\, and learn all about salamander season in Vermont! \nNaturalists will be on hand to answer questions about how and where you can take a peek at amphibian eggs or help out with amphibian conservation and community science projects including BEEC’s Salamander Crossing Brigade. \n  \nMonday\, April 13  from 6:30-8 \nVermont Reads Book Discussion: The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton \nJoin us for a thoughtful\, guided conversation centered on The Light Pirate\, a novel that follows one girl’s life as climate change reshapes Florida’s coast—and the meaning of home\, resilience\, and community. Rachael Cohen\, environmental writer and editor\, will facilitate this 90-minute discussion\, creating space to reflect together on the book’s themes\, characters\, and emotional impact. \nParticipants will explore themes such as climate adaptation and how people respond—individually and collectively—to environmental change. All readers are welcome\, whether the book moved you deeply or left you with lingering questions. Come prepared to listen\, reflect\, and engage in a meaningful exchange inspired by this powerful and timely novel. \n
