Book it now: New Kilkenny library programme to develop kids’ reading skills
A project aimed at improving literary skills in children has been launched by Kilkenny County Council Library Service.
Our public libraries’ annual Spring into Storytime programme runs for the whole of April and aims to bring the magic of Storytime to homes across the county through virtual means.
Kilkenny’s Library Service is organising a host of virtual events and activities, all based around reading and listening to stories, which families can enjoy at home.
The programme provides an ideal opportunity for children to take time to enjoy a variety of stories through online storytimes by library staff and authors and experience reading as a family activity which is fun and entertaining.
Reading with children and access to books has many important long-term benefits. Children who develop an interest in stories and reading have been found to have greater self-esteem and well-being, greater creativity and imagination, better social and health outcomes, and an overall better quality of life as they get older.
The Spring Into Storytime list of events can be found by visiting www.kilkennylibrary.ie or social media channels @kilkennylibrary.

I don’t know where to start from because i am overwhelmed. I never thought I will be healed of HIV virus and Genital warts. These Diseases have affected my life in many way and I have lost everything, including my partner and my job in the course of finding solutions to these illnesses. I wish to share to those living with HIV virus and genital warts (HPV), and those suffering from various diseases not to give up, because i never knew i will one day be healed and fine. My faith got back after reading from those who got healed Dr O.Water with his herbal medicines. I hurriedly contacted this great Doctor on drwaterhivcurecentre@gmail.com. He gave me hope that i will be totally healed after the treatment, so i did all he requested and he sent me his herbal medicines with the instructions on how to use it. To my surprise, in the third week, I was noticing great changes in my body system and the warts totally disappeared, though i still did not believe until i was confirmed both HIV and Genital warts absolutely Negative. Please if you are living with any disease it is my advise you write Dr O.Water for his medicines. He is actually a wonderful man and Godsent, he is kind and very straight forward. His Email is DRWATERHIVCURECENTRE@GMAIL.COM. His Whatsapp is +2349050205019
