For this Story Hour, we’ll read picture books about delicious foods, and about sharing meals with family and friends. Stories included in this event include picture books such as The Table by Winsome Bingham and Wiley Blevins, illustrated by Jason Griffin (pictured here). We’ll also sing songs and practice rhymes.

This program is entirely in English, and no translation will be provided. This participatory program is intended to encourage children to actively engage with stories. Children’s and Teens’ Services Intern Nicole Hoffman and Assistant Children’s and Teens’ Services Librarian Laurine Lucie will read books and lead you and your little one in songs and hand-rhymes during a live, interactive session. 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!
