The Cooke County Library has both a children's and young adults' collection and section.
In the children's area, patrons can find such books as, Margaret and H.A.Rey's Curious George series and the Angelina Ballerina series by Katharine Holabird. In the young adults'
section, teens can find books, like Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House series and the very popular Cirque du Freak series by Darren Shan and J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter.
The Library Director, Jennifer Johnson-Spence, encourages and welcomes
suggestions from both kids and adults for items in the collection. And Interlibrary loan
is available if the Cooke County Library does not own the item.
