If you’re hoppy and you know it, you’re a bunny… or a happy storytime kid! It’s been a fun summer for me. I’ve really enjoyed doing storytimes again, and I hope that I can find a way to continue in the fall. Sadly, though, Summer Royal Reading is coming to a close. My last storytimes this summer in Elgin will be next Wednesday, August 17th 10:30 am at the Rakow Branch and 5:00 pm at the McDonald’s on Larkin.<\/strong> I intend to “live it up”!<\/p>\n

\nFive little kittens standing in a row, (Hold up five fingers.)
\nThey nod their heads to the children so. (Bend fingers)
\nThey run to the left; they run to the right. (Run fingers to the left and then to the right.)
\nThey stand up and stretch in the bright sunlight. (Stretch fingers out tall.)

\nME-OW! See those little kittens run! (Let fingers run.) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
