About this event
Miss Zoe will be taking a break this week from her usual story times to welcome Miss Jessica (former JCFPL children's library associate and social worker). This program (for children ages 0-5) will center around social and emotional skills children need to succeed in school and in life. Please join us in the Heights Branch Community Room at 11 AM (not the usual 10:30 timing). REGISTRATION IS HIGHLY ENCOURAGED. It will open one week prior to the event and close the night before.
