| At CaRES we think reading with kids is amazing in so many ways, so we’re really excited to be able to offer our first story time! Reading together is more than just a way to improve children’s literacy skills and build their imaginations; it’s a bridge to work through difficult emotions and situations for adults and children alike. Join us at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 10, to hear “Pengwee’s Breath,” by Debbie Nutley, read to you by our very own CaRES Mentor Rachael Turner. This book tells the story of a young penguin who learns that his breath gives him the power to calm his fears. It’s written for ages 3-7 but all are welcome to join. We will have a few engaging questions for children after the story, and one family will be selected to be mailed the book after the event. Advance registration is required for this event: Register here. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email from Zoom containing links and other information. Because there will be foster children participating, this event cannot be recorded. If you are unable to attend, please check back for the next session of CaRES Story Time. Contact Christa Murray at [email protected] with any questions. |
