GOOD MORNING. HEIDI: GOOD MORNING. JENYNE: THIS EVENT FOCUSES AROUND THIS BOOK HERE. HEIDI: THIS YEAR OUR BOOK IS "ONCE UPON A BOOK," IT IS THE MAGICAL STORY OF A GIRL TRAPPED INSIDE ON A RAINY, COLD DAY, AND SHE WANTS TO GO OUTSIDE, BUT YOU CAN’T. SHE PICKS UP THIS BOOK AND IS TRANSPORTED TO THESE MAGICAL LANDS. JENYNE: IT DOES FEEL LIKE IT TRANSPORTS YOU TO A MAGICAL PLACE! MINDY: THAT DOES NOT -- HEIDI: THAT DOES NOT CHANGE. IT IS AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE. THIS IS TO INSPIRE FAMILIES TO ENJOY THIS TOGETHER. THEY CAN COME TO THE CENTRAL LIBRARY FROM 10:00 TO 2:00 TODAY. IT IS COMPLETELY FREE. WE HAVE TAKEN THIS BOOK AND BROUGHT IT TO LIFE INSIDE THE CENTRAL LIBRARY. IT WILL FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE WALKED INTO ALL OF THE EXPERIENCES THE LITTLE GIRL IN THE STORY IS HAVING. JENYNE: WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE PLACES YOU WILL GO IN A BOOK, YOU REALLY BROUGHT THAT TO LIFE. HEIDI: WHEN YOU WALK INTO CENTRAL LIBRARY YOU WILL SEE A GIANT, MAGICAL TREE. WE WILL GO UPSTAIRS INTO THE CREATIVE ARTS ROOMS AND THEIR IS A PYRAMID THERE. THERE ARE PERFORMERS ALL DAY. THERE IS A BUBBLE MAGICIAN! IT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE MONTH OF APRIL AT ALL OF OUR BRANCHES. KIDS AND FAMILIES WILL GET A KIT THAT HAS A LOT OF ACTIVITIES THEY CAN TAKE HOME AND EXPLORE THE BOOK MORE. JENYNE: THAT IS FANTASTIC. I LOVE HOW YOU ARE BRINGING PEOPLE IN. YOU’RE SHOWING THEM HOW FUN READING CAN BE.
