For this Story Hour, we’ll read nonfiction books and fictional tales all about dinosaurs, including Dinosaur vs. the Library by Bob Shea (pictured here). We’ll also sing songs and rhymes together. Check out the our recommended reading lists in the Children’s Library—Early find books about dinos, and prehistoric creatures.

This participatory program is intended to encourage children to actively engage with stories. This Story Hour will be hosted by Children’s and Teens’ Services Manager Celeste Rhoads and Children’s and Teens’ Services Intern Amber Auer. They will read books and lead you and your little one in songs and hand-rhymes during a live, interactive session. This activity is entirely in English, and no translation will be provided. Plan to join in, sing along, move around, and model movement and listening for your little one. We ask that all caregivers put away their phones and other electronic devices for the duration of this program. With your help, we hope to inspire children to become lifelong readers!
