Cheryl Francis, wife of Lieutenant Governor Gregory R. Francis, will read at the Children’s Story Hour from 11 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Sept. 10, at the Florence Williams Public Library.
Several wonderful children’s stories will be read, but the featured story is “PALAMPAM DAY!” It is an imaginary day beneath a tropical sun and moon — but a day that a little boy named Turo will never forget. The story is infused with Caribbean dialects of English, French, Dutch, Spanish, Creole and Papimento.
This event is free to the public and promises to be fun, enlightening and engaging for all that visit. For more information about the program, contact Ingrid Bough, territorial director of Libraries, Archives & Museums at the Florence Williams Public Library, at 773-5715, or visit the V.I.
