Storytime

Storytimes with Miss Karen

Children are invited to join Miss Karen at the library for stories, songs, rhymes, puppets and fun! While all children are welcome, each group is created with a focus on age appropriate developmental skills of the intended audience. Caregivers attending with their children should plan to engage with them during storytime. If you or your children are feeling ill, please stay home until you are better. This will help keep storytime and Miss Karen healthy.
