The 2022 Keller Library Summer Reading Program opened Wednesday with Marty the Magician. Marty performed several tricks for the children in attendance. The theme for this years program is oceans of Posibilities.

Marty and some volunteers perform a trick for the audience.
The volunteers draw a random stuffed animal out of a box. The envelopes were then opened to reveal that the animals matched the books in the envelopes also randomly chosen.
After Marty mixed three cups, one of which he poured water in, the volunteers had to pick one without water or get wet. Marty reveals that Esau Forman chose correctly.
Palmer Holden also chose the correct cup.
Marty now had to pour the cup with water over his own head, but it to was empty.
Volunteers answer questions following a story told by Marty.
