Discover a new local author in this monthly storytime series. For families. Please register.

Each month we will feature a local children's author or illustrator for a special storytime and craft. This month, author Andrew Donovan will be reading his picture book, "At First, I Couldn't". 

Book description:

Written for both children and the adults who encourage them to reach new heights, "At First, I Couldn't" is a reflection on all the things that at first, a child cannot do. But with enough practice, patience and perseverance, what first seemed like an impossible task can be overcome and can inspire children to overcome bigger obstacles in the future.
