Do you enjoy listening to a good story? Being read to is enjoyable for everyone! Every 3rd Tuesday of the month we will read two short stories out loud to you. These stories may have you on the edge of your seat in suspense, drifting off to the sound of the words, or full in your feelings. So sit back and relax while we read to you, with a brief intermission, and then finish off with an engaging discussion. This hybrid program allows for virtual and in-person attendance. If you plan to attend in-person, we meet on the 5th floor of the library at the Virtual Travel Center. Visit: https://sandiego.librarymarket.com/event/tell-tale-stories-read-alound-435609
