A magical reading hour for little book fans

When the doors of the Göttingen City Library in Weende open, a journey into a world full of fantasy, friendship, and dragon courage begins. On October 19, 2026, Kerstin Wagner will read from Leo and the Secret Dragon by Briony May Smith. The free reading is aimed at children and families and combines a literary experience with a cozy reading atmosphere.

Leo and the Secret Dragon: A story about courage and friendship

At the center is Prince Leo, who longs for a pet of his own. When a mysterious egg appears in the castle, the little dragon Winz hatches from it. From their initially clumsy encounter, a magical friendship develops that poses a great challenge for Leo.

Winz grows quickly and even starts breathing fire. When the dragon is discovered and flees into the forest, Leo must prove real dragon courage. The story unfolds its literary quality through a clear narrative structure, imaginative images, and themes that resonate directly with children: responsibility, loyalty, and the courage to stand up for a friend.

Reading as a linguistic adventure

A good reading hour makes language audible and stories come alive. Voice, rhythm, and the sensual power of the spoken word create an intimate atmosphere where children can directly experience characters, images, and actions. Kerstin Wagner's reading invites you to settle down in the reading corner and dive into the world of Leo and Winz together.

In the library space, a special connection is created between literary education and communal experience. Reading promotes attention, language sensitivity, and joy of reading, without losing sight of the playful character of the story.

Free entry without registration

The event takes place from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM at the Göttingen City Library, Weende Branch. Participation is free, and no registration is required. Seats are allocated as long as space permits.

The Weende branch thus becomes a meeting place for families who want to not only read literature but experience it together. Between library shelves and picture book worlds, a reading hour full of linguistic art, fantasy, and dragon adventures awaits.

Conclusion: Dive into the world of stories together

Visitors can expect a lovingly designed children's reading with an imaginative story about friendship, responsibility, and courage. Those who want to experience the special reading atmosphere of a library and open the door to literature for children should attend this free reading hour live.
