September 1, 2010 THE VILLADOM TIMES II • Page 17 Glen Rock Roundup Tea at Two meetings resume The Glen Rock Library’s Tea at Two on Tuesday Book Discussion will resume on Sept. 21 at 2 p.m. The group meets the third Tuesday of each month. The September selection will be “The Daughter of Time” by Josephine Tey. All readers are invited to this informal discussion group where tea and cookies are served. Multiple copies are available at the reference desk. “The Daughter of Time,” a unique combination of the detective story and a work of history, has been selected as one of the top 100 mystery books of all time. Tey recreates one of history’s most infamous crimes: the killing of the Little Princes in the Tower. In the classic best-selling novel, Inspector Alan Grant of Scotland Yard, recuperating from a broken leg, becomes fascinated with a contemporary portrait of Richard III that bears no resemblance to the Wicked Uncle of history. Could such a sensitive, noble face actually belong to one of the world’s most heinous villains: a venomous hunchback who may have killed his brother’s children to make his crown secure? Or could Richard have been the victim, turned into a monster by the usurpers of England’s throne? Grant determines to find out once and for all, with the help of the British Museum and an American scholar, what kind of man Richard Plantagenet really was and to solve the murder. For details, call Roz Pelcyger at (201) 670-3970. Center offers High Holy Days programs Join Glen Rock Jewish Center for dessert, a movie, and prayers of forgiveness and repentance as the High Holy Days begin. The “Power of Forgiveness,” on Saturday, Sept. 4 at 9 p.m., will features interviews with renowned Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh, Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel, and best-selling authors Thomas Moore and Marianne Williamson. The film explores the religious and philosophical role of forgiveness and examines how the scientific community measures the benefits of letting go of grief and resentment. “Apple and Honey: Taste of the High Holy Days” is a one-hour free service for families, adults, and all who are looking for a way into the High Holy Day spirit, will be held Sept. 9 from 2 to 3 p.m. To reserve free tickets, call (201) 652-6624.

The Terrific for Tots program includes Tots I for children who are 30 months, Tots II for three-year-olds, and Tots III for four-year-olds. (Ages are as of Oct. 1, 2010.) Children have the opportunity to explore arts and crafts, music, educational games, and perceptual motor activities and listening activities, while interacting with other children of the same age. The Mom & Tot program is open to parents and children of all communities. This program was developed to provide a special time for moms (or dads) and their toddlers. Speech and motor skills and social and emotional skills are developing rapidly in the 18- to 30-month-old, and Mom & Tots is designed to encourage growth in these areas through play and group interaction, while providing moms or other caretakers a forum for exchange of ideas and information. The classes are offered in two levels: Mom & Tots I for age 18 months, and Mom & Tot II for age 24 months. (Ages are as of Oct. 1, 2010.) The program is led by two teachers/degreed professionals. Registration must be made in person at the Community School, 600 Harristown Road, Glen Rock, in the lobby of the Glen Rock High School. The child’s birth certificate or passport must be presented.
