The Storytime is Monday, Aug. 24, at 6:30 p.m. or Tuesday, Aug. 25, at 10 a.m. at the library.
According to Esther Birkey, youth services coordinator, "Starting Kindergarten can be an exciting, yet anxious experience for a child. Bluffton Public Library would like to support local families in preparation for this new chapter.
"Community members are invited to join us to celebrate this new adventure through books, songs and rhymes. Patrons may also wish to check-out books with a Kindergarten theme, these will be on display after the Tuesday morning session."
