The Escalon Library welcomed plenty of furry friends this past week, as puppeteer and ventriloquist Tony Borders brought in his ‘Run with the Animals’ act as part of the Summer Reading Program. Top photo, young helper Olivia, at right, laughs along with Borders as they interact with a monkey puppet.
