Spring is Kitten Season
If you find a litter of kittens alone, don’t assume that
they’re abandoned. Momma cats
rarely abandon their babies and are typically nearby
hunting for food or hiding from
humans.

Ben Lesser, author and Holocaust survivor will be featured
in a live stream event at the
Clearfield Library. Mr. Lessner was 11 at the time Poland
was invaded by the Germans. He
and his family of seven were subjected to unimaginable
abuses including ghettos and
violent attacks. He went on to survive four concentration
camps, two death trains, and a
death march. He and his sister, Lola, were the only
remaining members of their immediate
family when Dachau concentration camp was liberated in 1945.
At 18, he emigrated to the
U.S. and his journey to live the American Dream began. At
96, he continues to share his
message and testimony so that the Holocaust is never
forgotten or repeated.
Join from home by clicking here.
Signed copies of Mr. Lesser's book, Living a Life That
Matters, will be available
for purchase at the live event.
