Jon Grand
Pre-Tree Lighting Holiday Storytime at The Book Stall
Grow your heart three sizes and celebrate holiday cheer with The Book Stall on Friday, December 6th! We’ll start at 4 PM with a Storytime featuring our own Jon Grand reading holiday classics (plus a visit from a green, furry guest)! All are welcome to join us for this free Storytime. Then, we’ll walk to Dwyer Park to watch the tree lighting at 6 PM. And we’ll sing! And we’ll sing! Sing! Sing! Sing! In addition to holiday carols at Dwyer Park, we’ll feast on hot chocolate, hot cider, and candy canes (sorry, no roast beast).
