Play, sing, laugh and dance at the Read to Me Jamboree Play and Learn Literacy Festival! This is a festival for preschoolers and their families where they can meet children’s authors and illustrators, watch performances by special presenters and enjoy activities at the Clark Pleasant Branch Library. Caregivers will learn about Every Child Ready to Read early literacy practices and activities that they can do at home.

The first 50 families to attend the author presentation with Oge Mora will receive a copy of her picture book “Saturday.”
