It is a Monday evening session, 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on December 7, so it fits after school. The library pitches it at school-age children, but younger brothers and sisters are welcome too; anyone 8 or under must have a caregiver aged 16 or older with them the whole time. There is no fee and nothing to book on the listing; questions go to the library's children's line at 980-432-8670. The same character storytime also runs at the East branch in Rockwell on November 30 and the West branch in Cleveland on December 5. ## Similar picks in Charlotte - [Shimmer and Shine Holiday Storytime — RPL West (Cleveland)](https://grassyknees.com/charlotte/activities/shimmer-and-shine-holiday-storytime-rpl-west-cleveland--listing-0dac91eca9a650c98dccf9b9) — Sat, Dec 5 · 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM · Rowan Public Library – RPL West, Cleveland · All ages · Free · checked Oct 27.
