Seeking Summer Program for 13-Year Old Son

Each year Story Town transforms the plaza in front of the Main Library into a virtual fantasy land where children’s books come alive. “Chicka Chicka Boom Boom” and “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” are just two of the five books to be featured theater-style on Story Book Lane.

The festival is geared toward families with children 3 to 12 years old. It is presented by MAKE WAY FOR BOOKS in partnership with the Pima County Public Library. Story Town entertainment, workshops (first come first served), and parking in the Joel D. Valdez Main Library garage are free.
