Local libraries celebrate 'Ladybird Live'

 

Published 7 June 2011

 

Two libraries in the Vale of Glamorgan celebrated ‘Ladybird Live’ last week with special events for local children.

 

Ladybird Live event at St Athan library

St Athan and Sully libraries took part in the national Ladybird Books initiative on Thursday 2 June, using special packs provided by the publisher. The packs included a copy of The Gingerbread Man which inspired the two groups to decorate their own gingerbread biscuits.

 

Andy Griffiths, Community Outreach Officer, Vale of Glamorgan Libraries, said, “The ‘Ladybird Live’ events were a great way to encourage more young people to use their local libraries. Not only were they treated to live storytelling and nursery rhymes, but they also enjoyed the messy fun of decorating biscuits afterwards! We also had some great feedback from the parents who came on the day and hope to hold similar events in the future.”
