Llama Llama Read-A-Rama Is Tonight at The St. Cloud Public Library

(KNSI) – The annual Llama Llama Read-A-Rama returns to the Great River Regional Library Tuesday night.

The free literacy event is from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., with famous llamas there for kids to see. The library will also have fire trucks and police cruisers on display.

United Way Director of Education Partnerships Stefanie Rothstein told KNSI News the fun kicks into high gear once you get inside. “We basically take over as much of the main level of the library as possible. Caregivers and their kids can attend read-aloud. We have the Boys and Girls Clubs and the Promise Neighborhood youth as guest readers. We also have the Great River Children’s Museum. They’ll be there doing activities with the kids.”

Reader’s Theater will also take place. There will be snacks and giveaways with all sorts of things that celebrate literacy.

Rothstein talked about this year’s slogan. “The themes have changed. And so this year, our main theme is Proud to be Me, where we really ask all individuals to consider who they are.”

The library and the United Way of Central Minnesota sponsor the event.
