Storytime Saturday

NRPL and Children’s Book Week have big birthdays this year – and this is the time to celebrate with storybook characters, crafts and loads of fun! Rita Meade, author of Edward Gets Messy, will read her book and help kids get a little messy themselves with a special craft.

Come to the party dressed as your favorite storybook character for the grand finale – Louise’s Literary Parade! Led by a surprise Grand Marshal and the Shinbone Alley Stiltband, the Parade will begin in the Children’s Room and make its way through Library Green, and then onto the Ossie Davis Theater for stage appearances. We’ll also have a Photo Booth, a Make-a-Book project, and Birthday Cake for NRPL’s 125^th Anniversary.
