Children love animals, all kinds, and whenever a group in Ada puts on an animal show the children attend in great numbers as was evident this week when the Ada Public Library invited Exotic Zoo to Ada.

Here, Javon Stacks passes around a Flemish Giant Rabbit for youngsters to touch gently.

This breed of domesticated rabbit can weigh more than 20 pounds. The Exotic Zoo is located near Detroit. Most animals there were born on the premises.

The animal display was held at the Ada First United Methodist Church due to library construction. More than 200 people attended the event which was part of the library's summer reading program.

Displays of animals have been popular this year, whether held at the Freed Center, service club meetings, festivals, or, in this case, the library.
