"Library storytime as an event can foster a sense that the library is a special place, helping instill in your child(ren) a lifelong love for your local public library"
Making reading a fun activity through storytime helps encourage “print motivation”- i.e. the association of story-telling with excitement to develop the idea of reading as a pleasure and not a chore." - excerpts from "Library Storytime: It’s a Lot More than just the Story" by Tom Bruno
Spanish Fort Public Library holds
Storytime for children of all ages every week.
