Library patrons know how books bring their subjects to life. At the Hancock Library, visitors can see an example of that literary magic – as portrayed by marshmallow Peeps.
This was the fifth year of the annual competition, library director Amy Markus said. The library received 19 entries, all of which depicted a scene from a favorite book starring Peeps, the ubiquitous Eastertime marshmallow chicks and bunnies. “Peeples choice” voting wrapped up on April 9, Markus said.
Anthony and Elena Spinale won in the children’s category for “Jurassic Peep,” a riff on Jurassic Park featuring a homemade dinosaur, and the Novotny family’s “The Sugaring-Off Party,” depicting a cozy maple syrup celebration, won the family division. “Julius Peepsar,” featuring the emperor’s infamous demise on the Ides of March, brought Amy Stodola a win in the adult division.
