At the Peterborough Town Library we introduce children to stories, to each other, and to the world!
Our programs cultivate curiosity, build imaginations, and bolster early literacy skills.
We invite all families to join us in sharing our love of imagination and reading at one of our many storytimes!
All are welcome, contact us to learn more about how we can make sure storytime works for your family.

Babies and their caregivers gather to sing songs, chant nursery rhymes, read board books and enjoy lap bounces. Perfect for babies from birth until they are too busy to want to stay in our storytime circle - siblings are always welcome too!
Perfect for those who are in-between baby and preschool storytimes
(ages 1.5-3) and a caregiver - siblings are welcome too! This program will take some from Baby Storytime and start to introduce things from our Preschool Storytime with singing and dancing too!
Join Lisa B. & Aimee for stories, movement, songs and a craft!
Perfect for kids who like to sit and listen to longer stories, suggested for ages 3-6 with a caregiver - siblings are always welcome too!
Our book group for 1st-4th graders! Read a book together as a family and meet once a month to talk about the book, have snacks, and participate in activities like crafts and games. Scroll down for more information!
Our book group for 5th graders and up! We choose one book a month to read and discuss over pizza! Each meeting we act silly, talk books, and did we mention that we eat pizza. New members are always welcome!
