Parents, guardians and caregivers, please don’t miss these special summer story times for you and your children.

Let our storytellers entertain you with a diverse cast of characters who will show us how all members of our community count and how those of all ability levels have something to offer.

Plus register for door prizes and have fun with other families who share in your values about both social & reading literacy.
