Description:

It's easy to get wrapped up in early literacy skills when developing storytimes.  Doing storytime is more a stage performance than discussion, like in reader's advisory or reference.  It requires thought beyond just picking materials.  And don't forget.....there are differences between liking storytime and liking TO DO storytime.  Learn presenter Lisa Campbell's 5 elements in doing a successful storytime.  She will discuss aspects that aren't normally covered when preparing for storytime to help you "put on a good show"!

Presenter:

Lisa Campbell has been with the Mid-Continent Public Library for about a dozen years and is the system's Children's Coordinator.  She jokes she  has worked with kids from diapers to driving!  She enjoys books with pirates, fancy words and excessive amounts of glitter.
