Storytime Theme: Imaginary Creatures
This was so fun to pull together! These picture books about imaginary creatures are absolutely adorable and great read alouds. What I love is that this can be just one storytime with a wide variety of imaginary creatures or you can choose just one creature and find a few more titles for a focus on unicorns and sasquatches or another favorite imaginary creature.
