We had lots of fun at our Booktrust Storytime today, reading 'Squish!' by Tim Bugbird and illustrated by Ian Worrall-Dutton 🐻☕️ The children enjoyed reenacting the story with the toys and making a bigger tent for the animals! 🙂 They also loved collecting their first sticker for their sticker booklet! Keep an eye out for the next Booktrust Storytime at Chertsey Library 🙂 BookTrust Surrey Libraries UK

Thank you to the wonderful Jelly Kelly who came to Chertsey library today to launch her new book 'Quackers The Magical Duck'. There was dancing, mindful magic, story reading and of course a duck hunt to find Quackers. We are always so grateful for your support for the importance of reading in children's lives and the fun you bring with you.
