Join us at Russell Books on for a one-hour program designed to inspire, educate, and empower kids (and their parents)  through the magic of storytelling! 

With your child, you’ll imagine the creatures that dwell among the bookshelves of Russell Books, and unleash your creativity as you help bring them to life through writing.

Participants will receive a fun activity booklet/writing journal to take home, ensuring the adventure continues long after the workshop ends. Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to spark your child’s love for storytelling.
