Santa Monica library brings books to the beach

SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- For the fourth year in a row, books are back at the beach.

Bookworms cozied up in the Surfside Reading Lounge.

Visitors to the sun-kissed pop-up library enjoyed Seaside Story Time, nautical crafts, ukulele and steel-drum lessons.

The also took a turn at hula hooping, and participated in hands-on, interactive environmental education sessions.

Visitors are encouraged to grab some sunscreen and a towel and head on down to the library between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The next wave of days will be Saturday, July 14 and Aug. 25 at Dorothy Green Park.

And they will pop-up again at the Annenberg Community Beach House on Friday, Aug. 10.
