Description
Start our 50th Library Fest off strong with a visit from picture book author Nancy Viau!! After a short introduction to how and why she became an author, Nancy takes a close look at unusual words in several picture books. Following a review of the five senses and how all the senses are engaged when reading and writing, students interact with rhyming phrases and see why each word (a rhyming word, a sound word, or a silly one) is important to the story. With sound and movement, there is never a dull moment! A book trailer adds a musical component, and the kids have the opportunity to practice reading a few of the new words they’ve learned. Finally, it’s time for lots of audience involvement as one picture book is read in its entirety.
Questions are encouraged! Best for grades Pre-K to 1st, but families welcome! Free books will be given out to attendees & a book signing afterward! Make sure to head over to the live music stage directly after the visit for kids music with We Kids Rock!!
