Storytime with Children's Laughter at the Göttingen City Library
When the doors of the children's library open, a special journey begins for families: On Saturday, October 10, 2026, Hiltrud Althaus, Gabriele Scheel, and Sigrid Backhaus invite you to a cozy storytelling session. Among books, pictures, and curious ears, a warm family experience full of imagination, shared time, and learning fun unfolds.
A little witch creates great excitement
On October 10, Hiltrud Althaus will read from The Little Witch: Trip with Abraxas by Otfried Preußler. The little witch wants to celebrate with the other witches on Walpurgis Night, but first she must pass a difficult witch exam. With buttermilk instead of water and a broken broomstick, not everything goes according to plan.
Reading strengthens imagination and language development
A storytelling session provides children with an age-appropriate learning experience filled with quiet moments, exciting images, and new words. By listening, they develop their imagination, expand their vocabulary, and experience stories together with other children. The cozy atmosphere at the reading podium creates a protected space for curiosity, wonder, and focused listening.
Cozy family time at the reading podium
The children's library invites families to settle in together and dive into the story. Parents and children experience a relaxed Saturday morning where books create closeness and children can let their imaginations run free. The event format is designed for children and combines cultural education with joy in reading.
Entrance free and without registration
Participation is free and does not require registration, as long as seats are available. Families can simply come to the reading podium of the children's library and enjoy an hour full of stories together.
Conclusion: Dive together into fantastic worlds
Reading in the children's library lovingly connects children, parents, and books in a special way. Look forward to an exciting story, children's laughter, and valuable shared time at the Göttingen City Library. This family experience invites you to discover the joy of reading live.
