StoryRider Preschool Stories

Miss Barb brings her years of experience working with preschool aged children to our library each week with her fantastic StoryRider Storytime. Designed for children 3-5 years old, Miss Barb's 45 minute program combines songs, stories and fingerplays and incorporates simple instruments and props for an interactive early literacy experience. Each program is followed by a simple craft for the children to take home so they can share the experience with their families.

The StoryRiders travel all over Berks County visiting libraries and are employees of the Berks Public Libraries System. Out StoryRider, Miss Barb visits us for sessions in the Fall and Spring on Tuesdays at 1pm and in the Summer on Wednesdays at 10am. Call ahead or stop into the library to find out her current schedule and then join us for giggles and grins.

Winter Programs

The weather outside is less than delightful, but hanging out in the library is a great alternative on a cold winter day when you just need to get out of the house. Stop in, find some books and movies, visit with your neighbors, or just find a quiet corner to read and relax.

Our storytimes continue through the winter months, so join us at Lapsit storytime on Mondays at 11am or Thursdays at 10am or check out our new Preschool storytime on Mondays at 10am. Miss Barb will be back for StoryRider storytimes on Tuesdays at 1pm. Call or stop into the library to see her full schedule. Bedtime stories are read every 1st and 3rd Tuesday night at 6:30pm.

We will be hosting more After Hours Movie Parties on Fridays at 6:30pm:
January 21st Despicable Me
Febrary 25th Ramona and Beezus

And don't miss our special Tween movie night! Friday February 11th at 6:30 we will be showing "The Last Song" and serving pizza.
