Storytime was a treat today! Our guest readers were Miss Tooele County Danica Olsen and her attendant Kimber Hall. Kimber read Kevin Henkes’ new picture book My Garden. In this delightful story a girl describes how her garden would grow. For example, there wouldn’t be weeds, flowers would grow back right after picking them, the rabbits wouldn’t eat the lettuce because they would be chocolate rabbits, and so on.
Then Danica read her favorite book Charming Opal (from the Toot and Puddle series by Holly Hobbie). This story tells about Opal who looses her tooth and anxiously waits for the Tooth Fairy to come. After reading, Danica gave each of the children their own toothbrush and tube of toothpaste.
As an activity, the children decorated die-cut flowers to go along with My Garden.
Thank you Danica and Kimber for reading to us today!!
