We love story times at Newcastle Libraries. They encourage language development, help foster a love of books, and most importantly, they're really, really fun!
Enjoy stories in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Explore what the library has to offer and make new friends. Come and listen to stories that will encourage young children to develop a life-long love of books from an early age. These sessions do not need to be pre-booked. Please feel free to drop in.
