The "Ready Readers" program is a monthly event for young readers that highlights popular book series that children love. Each event includes selections read aloud by the librarian from favorite books, followed by a craft or activity, and book recommendations.

Come hear this classic tale about a magic pasta pot read aloud, followed by some fun pasta activities, including a spaghetti and marshmallow building challenge and dried pasta art.
