Master storytellers named for Best of Books' STORY TIME at 11 a.m. every Saturday!

         After Story Time master storyteller Joyce Hamrick moved to Texas last fall, Best of Books missed her artwork  and her consistency every Saturday.
          New we think we have finally filled her void with our two Story Time master storytellers. Jean Northup and new storyteller Victoria Nelson will alternate in the role at 11 a.m. every other Saturday. Story Time will continue at 11 a.m. EVERY SATURDAY with the master storyteller reading two or three books and then doing an activity with the children. There will be treats occasionally and special activities on occasion, too.
           Best of Books also will invite a children's author on occasion, but Jean and Victoria will be doing most of the Story Times.
         

 Jean has been filling in at Story Time for at least two years and agreed to take more consistent role. She is known for her treats and activities, including children making Superman capes one Saturday.

            As for Victoria, she just joined Best of Books in the master storyteller role. She has been a pre-school teacher for about 25 years and is a certified fine arts teacher. Originally from Ohio, she has lived in Oklahoma for 34 years, been married for 46 years and has three children and grandchildren. She now works during the week at the First United Methodist Church.
          

 Victoria said she "loves children," which is shown in how she reads to the children and works with them on the activity.

            Story Time is free and open to the public. Most end before noon. Parents or grandparents are encouraged to stay in the store until Story Time has been completed.
             Please join our master storytellers at Best of Books!
