Programs for Children and Youth

Books come alive at the Lewisville Library the last Saturday of every month. Every session starts at 10:30 a.m. with a two minute “actor’s warm-up”, followed by reading the selected book of the month. Then kids get on their feet and learn by doing. K - 3rd graders will enjoy this interactive program.

Friends financially supported the Summer Reading Programs of Zelnick the Magician and Jon Sundell.  Friends continue to encourage our youngest patrons by sponsoring Books Alive every last Saturday of the month. 

The Books Alive programs are lead by Kay Smitherman, a teacher, volunteer at the Children’s Theater and a Board member of the Friends.
