The 7 p.m. show this Friday is "Magic Globe: A Story of the Seasons," followed by "Tales Of A Time Traveler" narrated by David Tennant at 8 p.m.
Magic Globe: A Story of the Seasons On vacation at her grandpa’s, a little girl named Mia accidentally discovers a mysterious piece of astronomical machinery. Edmund, Mia’s eccentric uncle, tricks the girl into using the tool’s secret powers to change the world’s seasons. She realizes the consequences of her actions, but Edmund doesn’t want to let the plan go.
Magic Globe is an engaging story designed to interest and challenge children from 5 to 12 years old. It has a clear educational structure with all science-related topics broken down into manageable chunks and naturally woven into the storyline. It allows children to recap knowledge they already have as well as learn multiple new concepts while following the story, which makes it perfect for mixed-ability audiences.
Watch the trailer here.
Tales Of A Time TravelerTime travel like never imagined! Explore ancient civilizations. Witness the birth of the universe. Journey to the edge of a black hole. In Tales of a Time Traveler, you will discover that time is not so easily defined. Time is illusive, impossible to hold. It can’t be owned. It can’t be stopped. Time travel surrounds you – from the biological clock in your brain and the changing shadows on a sundial, to the history of life on Earth. Then the story expands to the lives of stars, the time scale of the Big Bang, and the distortion of time by gravity.

Commerce Public Library's Adult Book Club meets on the last Thursday of each month!
For September, they're reading any book written by Jenny Lawson. Her books are nonfiction memoirs and extremely funny. The past few months have been such serious and depressing subject matter books, so it's time for a giggle break.
Here is a list of her books:-Let's Pretend This Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoir (2012)-Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things (2015)-You Are Here: An Owner's Manual for Dangerous Minds (2017) – An interactive art and coloring book-Broken (in the best possible way) (2021)-How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay: Tips and Tricks That Kept Me Alive, Happy, and Creative in Spite of Myself (2026)
If you have an Amazon Prime account, both the ebook and the audiobook of her very short essay, I Choose Darkness, are free to download and read.
