Welcome to the Laura Ingalls Wilder Children's Room!

Ms. Clara Webber was the first children's librarian of Pomona Public Library. A long time correspondent with Mrs. Laura Ingalls Wilder, she was instrumental in having the Children's Room named in honor of Mrs. Wilder on May 25, 1950. Today, we house the original hand written manuscript for the novel Little Town on the Prairie. Every February, we host the Laura Ingalls Wilder Sociable in honor of Mrs. Wilder's February 7th birthday.

The Halloween Tree at PPL!


Good day, young Pomonans! Is this tree awesome or what?? Our Reference department put up this Halloween tree in honor of Ray Bradbury. Our Big Read this year is Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. Bradbury also wrote Halloween Tree so this is our way of honoring him at this time of year.

Pomonans of all ages made the pumpkins you see here. Come on in and get the full affect of this mural like wonder.

Joke of the Day: What do witches ask for at hotels?
Answer: Broom service! ;)
