Join us at the Alachua Branch for Storytime with Dr. Pringle!

A pet-themed story time led by Dr. Pringle from Countryside Animal Hospital, combining reading with a fun introduction to veterinary medicine. Children would have the opportunity to enjoy a pet-themed book read by a local veterinarian, learn what veterinarians do and how they help animals, talk about simple ways they can help care for their own pets, participate in an “Ask a Veterinarian” Q&A, and complete a pet-themed coloring or activity page.

Children and caregivers can read, laugh, and sing at story times led by our local vet and library staff in the Alachua Branch Library; perfect for infants through 5-year-olds. Families are welcome!
