The story plays with the travel dreams of the different zoo animals. Gisela Giraffe wants to travel to Paris while Piet Pinguin wants a sunny place. The camels dream of real snow. A smart hedgehog, Ignaz peppermint, has the sparkling idea to combine all wishes and makes the short closure of the zoo an exciting adventure for the young listeners.

After reading aloud, painting and tinkering on the subject of zoo and travel takes place. The creative element enables the children to deal with the story even more intensively and to process the content in a playful way. Participation in the reading hour is free of charge and a prior registration is not required.

This event series is included in the large number of reading hours that are offered regularly and mostly free of charge.

other reading hours in Mettmann

Another date for a reading hour is also in the Mettmann City Library on Saturday, September 7th. On this occasion, Silke Bogner reads the story "Jim Knopf saves the Gugelhupf" by Beate Dölling and Mathias Weber. Jim Knopf wants to bake a Gugelhupf and supports Ms. Waas in preparation. There will also be a creative aftermath with painting and handicrafts on this occasion.

The reading hours are not just an opportunity to listen. They also represent a valuable contribution to integration and promotion. They offer small groups of five to eight children the opportunity to learn more about stories and improve their linguistic skills. The stories can be designed so diverse and appealing that they arouse and keep the children's interest.

The city library in Mettmann makes a significant contribution to promoting cultural education and enthusiasm for reading among the youngest. This creates a basis for the linguistic development and social interaction of children in our society.
