Join us for a fun and interactive story time designed especially for preschoolers! Each session features engaging read-aloud books, lively songs and a simple craft to spark creativity and reinforce the theme of the day. This program encourages a love of reading, promotes language development, and offers a great opportunity for young children to socialize and explore new ideas in a supportive environment. 

We will be watching a thoroughly cinematic drama, Elvis's story as seen through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker. As told by Parker, the film delves into the complex dynamic between the two spanning over 20 years, from Presley's rise to fame to his unprecedented stardom, against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and loss of innocence in America. Central to that journey is one of the significant and influential people in Elvis's life, Priscilla Presley.

Members will agree on a book and read it beforehand. After everyone has finished, the group will meet up to discuss what they thought about the book. Since everyone has their own perspective, a book club meeting allows for a healthy flow of insights, in an open and friendly environment. People can openly express their thoughts and broaden their understanding of a particular book.
