Toler Elementary Community Literacy Night

Toler Elementary Community Literacy Night

Toler Elementary , 3350 Baker St., is hosting a night for students, families and community members to come together and celebrate literature on January 31st from 5:30-7:30pm. The featured speaker is Kathleen Krull, author of many acclaimed biographies for young readers, including “The Boy on Fairfield Street: How Ted Geisel Grew Up to Become Dr. Seuss,” the “Lives of” series, and the brand-new “The Beatles: They Were Fab—and They Were Funny.” In 2011 she won the Children’s Book Guild Nonfiction Award for her div of work. She will have some of her books available for sale and signing after the program.

In addition, the Clairemont High School Theatre group will present a production based on the book “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”. Toler’s partner in education, the Clairemont Public Library, will be represented and there will be a Used Book Sale to benefit the Toler Library. The 5th grade students will be selling pizza starting at 5:30. There will also be a raffle to win prizes and there will be giveaways for all who attend. Mark your calendars early for this exciting event. Questions? Call Amy Murad in the Toler Library at 858-273-0294
