The staff of the Youth Serves Department is eager to help you find good books to read, locate answers to homework questions, and share some of our favorite stories and books. Here are some things we offer:
Storytime - For the 3 1/2 to 5 year old. Forty minutes filled with stories, fingerplays and films to introduce children to the joy of books
Summer Reading - A program designed for 1st through 6th graders to encourage reading during the summer months. There is also a "Read-to-me" program for preschoolers to encourage parents to read to their children.
Special Programs - Presented throughout the year, these programs include guest speakers, performers, arts and crafts, bingo, and film specials. Check the Calendar for the schedule of events.
There are still plenty of stories to share at our storytime programs. Give us a call at (708) 562-2301 and reserve a spot today!
