Groton Public Library hosted its sixth annual Bumpers & Books on Saturday, Oct. 16. The event is a traditional trunk or treat with a literary twist — all of the car trunks are decorated in book- and author-related themes.
In addition to the cars, we will have activities for the children such as crafts and tattoos, and vendors and a book sale for adults. This program has been honored as the Best Focused Project by a Library Friends Group in the state.
