Great Picture Book Adventures for Little Book Fans

When children's eyes sparkle and exciting stories come to life, a special family experience begins at ReadingWorlds. On November 6, 2026, the local library in Nippes invites children aged 3 and up to a free reading hour featuring picture book stories.

Dive in Together, Marvel, and Laugh

In a cozy atmosphere, families will discover well-known characters like Findus, Lieselotte, and Zilly, as well as new and unusual picture books. The stories read aloud create space for curiosity, imagination, and shared children's laughter. While looking at the pictures, children experience age-appropriate learning and learn to express thoughts, feelings, and their own ideas.

Creative Follow-Up Activity for the Whole Family

After the reading, children can draw a picture related to the story. This creative activity deepens the learning experience, strengthens imagination, and gives the little visitors the opportunity to make their favorite impressions visible. Parents enjoy relaxed shared time and an uncomplicated access to the world of books.
