Measurable Outcome(s)
Young children and families enjoyed a live Trunk Show performance with author Derek Anderson while engaging with the statewide OUR book selection. Additional Once Upon a Reader programming outcomes include:
We had over 530 people attend our Piggy Palooza storytimes.
We handed out over 600 copies of the book Ten Pigs! to children and families, led hundreds of children on Ten Pigs Scavenger Hunts and Story Strolls around the library, and conducted 4 off site outreach Piggy Palooza storytimes reaching an additional 72 children.
All in all it was a pig-tastic success!
