Return to News Page

Children's storytelling event at a library, featuring two presenters engaging the audience while sitting in armchairs, surrounded by kids eagerly participating and listening.

Standing before a group of incoming kindergarten students and their families on May 19, Bronxville Elementary School Interim Principal Adrienne Laitman and Assistant Principal Dr. Michelle Tween led a read-aloud session featuring two children’s books.

Held in Bronxville School’s middle and high school library, the event drew an enthusiastic audience, with students actively engaged in the stories. Laitman and Dr. Tween read “The Color Monster” by Anna Llenas, which helps children identify and understand their emotions, and “Buffalo Fluffalo” by Bess Kalb, a story about a tough-acting buffalo who learns a lesson in self-acceptance.
