What makes Science Story Time special? Reading aloud fuels curiosity and helps children discover the pleasure of reading. Science Story Time provides a model of fluent, expressive reading and taps into the imagination and sense of wonder in children. By using images, actions, or ideas in picture books as teaching foundations for scientific exploration, a broad range of young people can be invited into the exploration. WonderLab utilizes the broad selection of books from the Monroe County public library and strives to offer a great diversity of stories so that children can find characters, places, and experiences that are familiar and representative of their lives.
