Read To Some Bunny!

Graphic of a bunny and flowers outlines that say, "Read to some bunny. Every other Monday at 4:00 for reluctant readers. Call to make an appointment! 918-358-2676."

Do you have a reluctant reader?  Does your child struggle with reading?  We want to help!

On every other Monday, your child can come to the library and read to a well-behaved bunny rabbit.  But you must make an appointment as space is limited.  From 4:00 – 5:00 pm, each child will have a 15 minute time slot to read to (and pet) their furry friend.  These bunnies are happy to listen to your child as they improve their reading skills!

To make an appointment or for more information, call 918-358-2676.

*Read To Some Bunny takes a break from May – August.
