Read & Sign Storytime is the 4th Sunday of each month at 2 pm!

Did you know babies as young as six months can learn to sign? Signing strengthens communication skills and encourages children to be more active participants in their environment.

Children can listen to and watch this storytime in partnership with the Deaf Mentor Program. Deaf Mentors are highly trained deaf or hard-of-hearing adult role models who introduce families to Deaf Culture and promote family relationships through natural language acquisition.

Does your child struggle with reading? Sometimes all kids need is a Tender Little Heart to listen.

Therapy animals encourage children to read by listening quietly and patiently as your child reads from a book. Your child can bring their favorite book to read or choose one from Bookmans Phoenix. Children ages 4-9 years old are encouraged to read to a miniature horse.

This event is by reservation only. To reserve your time slot, please visit this link.
