Kansas Reads to Preschoolers week is November 12th -18th. This is the second year for this event, it is held the same week as National Children’s book week and National Education Week.
This year the book chosen by the commitee was Bunny Cakes by Rosemary Wells, it’s a Max and Ruby book. Max & Ruby want to make a cake for grandma’s birthday. They have very different idea’s as to what the cake should be.
To celebrate this week the library had a special story teller for story hour. Nadine Poss from Poss Real Estate here in Richmond, she consented to come and read the story to the kids. Nadine also made a donation to the library which was used to purchase a copy of the book for each of the story hour kids.
After the story the kids made bunny chalkboards out of CD’s and felt. After the craft they decorated cupcakes with pink icing and candy hearts and gummy worms. The kids and Nadine really enjoyed themselves.
Many thanks to Nadine Poss for her generosity and for reading to the kids.
