What a lovely time we had at our Gruffalo Granny Storytime last week! 🐭🦊🐍

It was wonderful to see so many families joining in the fun. If you couldn't make it along, don't worry - we've put together a display celebrating the much-loved stories of Julia Donaldson! πŸ“šβœ¨

From The Gruffalo to Room on the Broom and more, come and rediscover some children's classics!

Already November? Well if you haven't stepped through our doors in a while, here's your reminder to get involved! πŸ’š
You can do all these things at the Library:

πŸ“– Get cosy with a good book – escape those winter nights and dive into a new world!

β˜• Get social – join us for a tea or coffee at our Just a Cuppa sessions on Monday and Wednesday mornings.

🎨 Get creative – try out Zine Club, Craft Club and more!

🧘 Get active – we now host yoga and seated exercise classes. Find out more on our website!

🧠 Get brainy – chat to our staff about Norfolk Reading Pathways or Norfolk Adult Learning and Skills courses which you can sign up for here!

A nice reminder that there's more to the library than just books (although we're pretty big fans of these too) ! 🧑🍁
