Kids had oceans of fun during the Braden River Public Library's weekly preschool storytime.
The storytime had a special guest Wednesday, Sept. 30. Siesta Key resident and author Diane Ochiltree visited with the children and read aloud her newest book, It's a Seashell Day. The book coincided with this week's theme, oceans. Chris Culp, youth services librarian, also lead songs and a sea-scene craft.
