Upcoming Programs & New Picture Books

We'll be having a Fairy Tale Ball on Saturday, Oct. 22 at 11 a.m. for children ages 3+! We'll be in the ballroom above Allerton Library and the kids will make crowns or princess hats, decorate & eat gingerbread men, get supplies for growing their own beanstalks, have juice and sandwiches made with the Little Red Hen's bread, and try to answer Rumpelstiltskin's trivia questions. Kids can also dress up as a fairy tale character if they like. Please register by Oct. 20 if you are interested.

I'm also working on improving my regular weekly programs by learning new songs and incorporating puppets and flannelboard components (work in progress!) So please do stop by for a Baby Lap Time on a Tuesday morning or a storytime on a Thursday morning.

Speaking of regular programs, I'm also excited about some new picture books that I'm going to try out with my storytime audience. One of them is a new release by Jan Thomas called Is Everyone Ready for Fun? I'm also going to try Dot by Patricia Intriago and 999 Tadpoles by Ken Kimura. Come check them out!
