John McIntire Library

Storytime Room

Drop in for quiet reading time. Bring any book you love and enjoy silent reading or read aloud with an adult. Sign in, get cozy, and dive into your story.

Join us for a relaxed and cozy reading program designed just for kids! This drop-in book club offers dedicated time for children to enjoy their own reading—whether they prefer to read silently to themselves or quietly out loud with an adult. Kids are welcome to bring any book they like; there’s no required title and no pressure to share unless they want to. Upon arrival, readers will simply sign in with their name and the book they’re diving into, then settle in for some uninterrupted story time. At the end, there will be an optional sharing moment for anyone excited to tell others about what they’re reading. It’s all about creating a calm, fun space that celebrates the joy of reading!
