A free story-time event for pre-schoolers will take place in a Petersfield bookshop this Friday morning (June 7).

Little Listeners is returning to Waterstones with Annabel Knowles, head of nursery at Churcher’s College, telling stories from 9.30am.

The free event consists of a “very special story session” and parent Q&A on preparing children to read.

It’s a brilliant opportunity for parents and carers to support their young children with reading and socialising.

No booking is necessary, just turn up.
