Fall Story Time Begins
Story time is an excellent time to introduce your preschool child to the love of reading. Visiting the library is a good habit to develop. Children ages 3-6 are invited to come and listen to great stories, make fun crafts and enjoy delicious, nutritious snacks. They will meet new friends and experience the fun of listening to stories that are varied in their characters, cultures and adventures. Story time is held at 10:30 a.m. or 1:30 p.m. Wednesdays. Register in the children’s department today. Spread the word among friends and family.
