Library Story Times in Cape Town

Check directly with the library for story times, see this list of your local libraries for contact details. Please feel free to leave a comment should you know of another Library that offers story time or if these details change!

Some book stores also offer this service such as The Book Lounge in Roeland Street, City Centre or Readers Warehouse in Tokai. Keep an eye out in the local press for details.

Kathryn is a South African lifestyle blogger and mom of 2 who has been blogging daily for almost 7 years! She writes about travel, health, beauty, fashion, decor and family... but not food (unless it's food she's eaten made by someone else) as she is a hopeless cook. She only wakes up early for 2 things... a red-eye flight to somewhere exotic and early morning game drives. She has just finished an extensive home renovation and would prefer to never see another box again. She's never met a chocolate or glass of bubbles that she didn't like!
