We've had a lot of fun with our Storytime Share the last few weeks! The Franklin Central School District Pre-K class visited twice, with Ms. Katie and Ms. Daisia being the guest readers. The books read were by Eric Carle, and the crafts, which students helped the teachers prepare, were done in the author's artistic style. Join us today, 5/19 @ 10am, for more fun books and crafts. All are welcome!

"May the Fourth" be with you to make it to the Storytime Share on May the Fifth!() 😉
This one will be a little different. We will be reading "Mom Pie," but it will be projected on the big screen! The video was made a few years ago, but it's perfect for Mother's Day coming up. We will be making "mom pies" and the kids will have a little something extra to take home to make the "pie" extra special for mom. 💐
