Each month, we receive new books at Neepawa Library and the best part of unpacking the boxes is taking a few minutes to read each and every picture book that arrives. What fun it is to read about Peppa Pig’s latest adventure or books that tell a story with pictures alone, such as “Draw the Line.” Picture books are an excellent way for children to participate in the telling of a story because the illustrations and limited text are open to interpretation and elaboration by the reader. And believe me, they’re fun for adults as well!
