| Please stop by and say hi! Lizzie comes to us from the New Berlin Public Library and the Elm Grove Public Library.
Some of Lizzie’s favorite children’s books include the Frog and Toad series and Tap the Magic Tree by Christie Matheson. Her favorite middle grade fiction series is Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan. She is excited to start programs that build up different literacy or learning skills in fun ways. |
