Fall Storytimes

Sign-up begins Monday September 20th for our fall storytime sessions for children ages 2 through 5. Storytimes are a great way to foster early literacy skills and encourage a love of books and reading! Find out more about dates, times, and how to register here. For information about our drop-in storytimes and baby lapsits, please see our storytimes page.

Want more information about the benefits of storytime? The September 2009 issue of School Library Journal has an excellent article detailing how attending storytimes can help prepare preschoolers for Kindergarten. Check it out here.
