Reading with Friends returns in September with Pete the Cat and Toby Nosker

September’s book for Reading with Friends will be “Pete the Cat and His Magic Sunglasses” by Kimberly and James Dean.

“Pete the Cat wakes up feeling grumpy — nothing seems to be going his way. But with the help of some Rockin’ Magic Sunglasses from Grumpy Toad, Pete learns that a good mood has been inside him all along.”

The book will be read by special guest Toby Nosker of NCK Today.

Story time will begin at 10 a.m. Friday, Sept. 13.

The story times for children 3 to 5 years old are on the second Fridays of the month and all begin at 10 a.m. at Neighbor to Neighbor, 103 E. Sixth St. Each session includes playtime and a snack for the children, plus each child will receive a free copy of that day’s book to take home.

There is a limit of 30 children per session so parents must register in advance. Call Neighbor to Neighbor at 785/262-4215 or email neighbortoneighbor@csjkansas.org.

The monthly program has been a part of Neighbor to Neighbor’s regular offerings since September 2012.
