If your children love creepy crawly things, bring them to the Beach Haven Public Library for “Zoophoria” on Thursday, Aug. 8, 1 p.m. The program will take place at the outdoor garden; it will be held indoors in case of rain.

Presenter Samantha Slevens will introduce children to animals such as a 60-pound tortoise, boa constrictor and a bearded dragon lizard. Her traveling menagerie also includes a bullfrog, Eastern box turtle, python, black throated monitor and crested gecko.
