Small World Languages instructor Kim Braun-Cohen led the signing (and singing) using books and props to help children understand the lesson. Here, Braun-Cohen holds up a book for Noor Maklad as Roy Otterstrom holds his book. For more information on upcoming programs at the library, visit www.northhavenlibrary.net.
