Children can learn much from the stories shared here and from interacting with others their own age. Curious young minds experience the magic that stories offer while developing social skills, building vocabulary, and developing early literacy skills for future reading success.
Reading aloud introduces the idea that stories are worth telling, that books are worth sitting down and listening to, and that the Library is a great place to explore the world with others. Join us!
