Monongahela

Almost every bookstore has a story time, but not every bookstore has a story time that keeps customers coming back again and again. This session is designed to teach attendees:

  • The performance aspect of story time and how to turn up the energy
  • Tips and tricks to be the best reader in the world
  • How to keep little ones engaged
  • Ways to adjust your approach when the crowd gets restless
  • How to read to kids of all ages
