This ongoing storytime is great for introducing your preschooler to sitting while listening to stories as well as entertaining your kindergartener or first grader. Shared books count toward 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten and 300 Books Before Third Grade, while storytime minutes count only during RPL's annual Summer Reading Challenge. Please always check the online calendar via RPL's website or app as programs may be canceled without notice due to unplanned absence/illness or unavoidable schedule conflict/change.
