## About

The West branch of Rowan Public Library, on School Street in the town of Cleveland, has a Saturday-morning holiday storytime with Shimmer and Shine on December 5 from 10 to 11 a.m. The program promises songs, stories, laughs and a craft to start the holiday season. This is the only weekend date of the three branch sessions, which makes it the easiest one for working parents in western Rowan County. It is designed for school-age children, though preschoolers and toddlers may come along; a caregiver aged 16 or older must stay with any child 8 or younger. The event is free and no sign-up is listed. Call 980-432-8670 with questions.
