Welcome to Island Story Time!

Hello librarians, parents, and kids! I’m Stephanie Katz, a librarian for the public library on the gorgeous Anna Maria Island in sunny Florida. Every Tuesday, I host story time for kids 0–5. I post my story time notes here for other children’s services librarians and parents who are working hard to shape littles into wonderful human beings.

Bubble Break!
I usually sneak in a bubble break at some point, especially if the book has bubbles in it. It’s always fun to drop everything and dance around in bubbles for a few minutes.
