Children ages 17 and younger who attend will receive a free book while supplies last.

"Reading together is the single most important way to help young children get ready to read," the library said in a blog post. "It helps children develop an interest in reading, as well as increases their vocabulary and general knowledge."

Pre-registration is required. For more information or to register, go to www.norton.org.
