Storytime begins again at Odell Public Library, 307 S. Madison Street, Morrison, IL, on Thursday, September 7, 2017. Children and their caregivers are invited to join a librarian in the children’s area from 7:00 to 7:30 p.m., each Thursday during the school year to share a story and create a simple craft.
The purpose of Storytime is not to teach children to read, but rather to encourage the love of language and literature in all its forms. Youngsters listen to, and imitate, the books and activities we share, building reading readiness as they grow. The goal is to create positive interactions with books that the parent and child can experience together.
Children are welcome to enjoy Storytime in their pajamas. Many like to come a little early to explore the play kitchen area. Read and grow with Odell.
