Library EventAuthor Visit Bilingual Storytime with Raquel MacKay

Former ICPL staffer, current English Language Learner (ELL) teacher, and now author Raquel MacKay joins us this morning to share her debut picture book "I Hear a Buho"!

"I Hear a Buho" is a rhyming story with text in both English and Spanish, which encompasses language, the parent-child bond, nature, and the benefit of being still, and listening. In addition to sharing this story, Raquel will lead us in some interactive rhymes and songs featuring Spanish words and phrases.

After storytime, stay for an owl craft! Sidekick Books will be here with books on hand to purchase. If you would like to preorder a copy from Sidekick Books, visit https://bit.ly/3V3VovZ and select “ICPL Event Day Pick-Up" and your copy will be ready for you at the library event.
