PJ Library — Books and So Much More

By Hailey Dalby, Jewish Youth & Family Program Manager

Did you know that PJ Library sends free books that celebrate Jewish values and culture to families with children from birth through 12 years old? As well as award-winning books, our PJ Library Community provides monthly events for Jewish children. Since school started, we have been busy reading, and busy playing! Recently, our families have had a foam-tastic time at our end-of-summer bash and will make a splash at Eagle Lakes Community Park for Sukkot.

Some of the books our families have received this School Year are Finding Forgiveness, My Friend, the Apple Tree and Sadie’s Sukkah Breakfast.

Grandparents

Calling all Bubbies, Zaydes, Nanas, Granddads, Grandmas and Grandpas! From passing down traditions to sharing family history with future generations, your role in your grandchildren’s lives is irreplaceable — and PJ Library agrees! Grandparents can enroll to receive free PJ Library books to read with their grandchildren. If this is something you and your family are interested in, contact me, Hailey Dalby, Jewish Youth & Family Programs Manager, to enroll at 239799-1113 or hdalby@jewishnaples.org!

PJ Podcast

Commute time, cooking dinner or folding the laundry — sometimes we do not have a spare hand for a book. PJ Library has a solution! Through three different podcasts, PJ Library offers curated storytelling for young Jewish minds in audio format!

Have I Got A Story For You! takes classic Jewish folk tales and gives a modern twist. Beyond the Bookcase follows Miri and Micah as they venture beyond the bookcase where Jewish fairytales come to life. And listen along with Mimi in Afternoons with Mimi as she reads your favorite PJ Library books!
