Thanks to everyone who attended our annual Family Reading Night! Dancing elephants, tightrope-walking clowns and flirty puppy-dogs among an imaginative cast of marionettes, I think it's safe to say "delighted" was the unanimous response that the showcased performance by professional puppeteer Dave Herzog received:
Who could ask for anything more? But more was what we had, with a choice of two sessions from a long menu of reading fun, including a storytime with the popular Fireman Rob...
or with gifted public librarian Stephanie Lorfel from the Northtown Branch (who also offered library card sign-up!)...
or bilingual books read by Ms. Begum (in Urdu) and Ms. Lugo (in Spanish)...
or a rousing (and hilarious!) fairy-tale performance given by the Primary Team...
Or a visit to the always well-attended Haunted House Museum in the school library, followed by spooky stories delivered to a crowd by our own esteemed principal Ms. Onofrio and dear V.P. Mr. Brandon (who knew he could rap so well to Shake Dem Halloween Bones?)...
What a great way to get to know each other, and celebrate one another as the community of readers that is STONE! Special and heartfelt thanks to all our special guests, and to the Reading Committee, our supportive administration and of course all of our families for making this night so magical and memorable. Hope this evening serves as an inspiration to turn many more pages!
