Read for Prizes! Family Read Aloud Month at Warren Library

Cindy Lou Who

Celebrate  Family Read Aloud Month this March at Warren Township Library. Stop in at the library anytime during the month and pick up your packet for our "at-home" reading program. Every family member can participate, even those from far away via FaceTime or Skype. Audio books, stories, plays - any reading counts!

Packets include a robot that families can color in for every 15 minutes read together. For each completed robot, the family will be entered in a drawing for a prize. All robots will be displayed in the Youth Services section of the library. Prizes provided by Trattoria La Strada and 16 Handles.

Participants can also "Guess the Author" each week. The week's author will be displayed on the bulletin board and people can enter for a chance to win a book. A winner will be drawn from the correct answers every Monday.

Program materials provided by the Friends of the Warren Township Library.

It's Family Read-Aloud Month at Warren Township Library

Storyteller Julie Pasqual

The Warren Township Library kicked off Family Read Aloud Month on March 2 with a visit from storyteller Julie Pasqual and a showing of Dr. Seuss' The Lorax. Children also had the chance to decorate a "Cat-in-the-Hat" paper hat and sign up for our Read-Aloud program.

Pasqual had the kids equally giggling and enthralled by her engaging stories. Check out a clip of her performance below. There also are more photos of the day on our Facebook page and a video clip below.

If you missed this fun-filled event you can still sign up for our Family Read-Aloud program which runs until March 31. Just pick up a packet from the Children's Services desk and start reading together.  

 
Each week, participants will have a chance to win a book by solving the clue to the book title on display in the Children's section. 

For a chance to win a grand prize at the end of the month, read with your kids, fill in your reading log and return it to the library. The grand prize will be supplied by Trattoria La Strada and Cold Stone Creamery.
