Storytime and Readers Theater with Award-Winning Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow
Paschalville Library
Join award-winning author Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow for a fun and not to be missed Storytime! She will read aloud from her most recent book Abdul's Story about a little boy who loves storytelling but struggles with writing, and Mommy’s Khimar about a young Muslim girl who spends a day wrapped up in her mother's colorful headscarf. Following the read aloud children will participate in Readers Theater, a dress-up activity in which children act out parts of the book.
The series of programs is made possible by the Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art. For more events go to freelibrary.org/pathofislam
