Read, talk, sing, dance, and laugh the whole way as you stop at each panel to discover something new.

Walk or ride- it’s the perfect outdoor activity for families with young children.

Every few months the story will change! It’s an exciting way to connect to your local library.

Frank’s Red Hat

The current title to read at The Storytime Way is Frank’s Red Hat by Sean E Avery.

A story about never giving up on your talents, because even though what you do may not be appreciated right now, it may be in time. Possibly by someone you’d least expect.

Frank is a penguin with ideas. Mostly terrible ones. That’s why his fellow penguins are nervous when he shows them his strange new creation. Something they’d never seen or expected to see in their cold and colourless Antarctic world — a red hat.

We are able to bring you Frank’s Red Hat thanks to Walker Books.
