Spooky Stories for Halloween

Just in time for Halloween, Megumi is bringing her "Fun and Spooky Stories" back to the Central Park Library. Children, who are 4 years of age and older, and their families are invited to gather in the Redwood Room on Tuesday, October 28, at 7:00 p.m. to watch Megumi's dramatizations of mysterious Japanese folk tales and legends.

Megumi, who grew up in a bilingual home, has always enjoyed listening to stories, especially those about strong girls and women. She also is very interested in true stories and experiences from World Ward II Japanese Internment camps. She believes that the heroes and heroines that we meet in folk tales can teach us to face our own fears and overcome obstacles in our own lives.

Be ready for a spooky, scary night with Megumi! Just be sure to arrive in plenty of time. We'll start stamping hands for those who wish to attend at 6:30 p.m., and no one will be admitted after the program has begun. And please remember, this program is for children who are AT LEAST 4 years of age.
