Per Sia from Drag Queen StoryHour is our #SweetStorieswithSFPL guest reader today.  Thank you to Magination Press, Books for Kids from the American Psychological Association, for allowing us to share this wonderful story with you. This Day in June is written by Gayle Pitman and illustrated by Kristnya Litten and won an ALA Stonewall Award. If you would like to pick up your own copy of this book or other Pride-inpsired titles from Magination Press, while the library is closed, we encourage you to support your local bookstore. @MaginationPress  Happy Pride!

In that spirit, you can now press play on the Library’s storytime right in your home. Tune in to the Library’s Instagram account (@sfpubliclibrary) Monday through Friday at 2 p.m. and Saturday at 10 a.m. for “Sweet Stories with SFPL,” a short video of songs, rhymes and a story to enjoy with your young children. On Wednesdays, we offer Sweet Stories in Mandarin, and Saturdays en español. And occasionally, our episode on Fridays at 2 p.m. features a special guest.

Don’t have Instagram? “Sweet Stories with SFPL” is also available on the Library’s YouTube channel. Replay Sweet Stories at your convenience and easily access them on any device wherever you might be. We encourage you to repeat them, as repetition is a great way for children—and grownups—to learn the songs.
