Hey Family Movie Night Friends! This month's movie, The Pagemaster (1994), takes us to a magical library where the books come to life to tell their stories! In honor of the Gulf Coast Reads Annual Reading Initiative book, the Librarians by Sherry Thomas.
Movie synopsis: A cowardly boy, Richard Tyler (Macaulay Culkin), enters a library to escape a storm, only to be transformed into an animated illustration by the Pagemaster. He has to work through obstacles from classic books to return to real-life.
Join us for Preschool Story Time, an early literacy program featuring stories, songs, and a fun craft! This program is for children ages 3-6 years old and their caregivers.
In order to ensure the safety of our youngest patrons, this is a ticketed program. Free tickets available in the library on the morning of the program. First come, first served.
Join us every Saturday in our children's area for a family-friendly Story Time with Sawyer, a certified therapy dog, and his human, Betsy!
