AIDA H DEE, the storytime drag queen, will be hosting a series of events as part of their summer tour, including a number of libraries across Wokingham and Woodley.

Drag Queen Story Hour UK is an established children’s entertainment program, which sees drag performers travelling around the country holding free interactive shows for children.

The events aim to promote diversity and acceptance of others, as well as encourage families to visit and use libraries, take up reading, and promote the art of storytelling.

Aida H Dee is an advocate for neurodivergence, a published author, and a patron of Autistic Inclusive Meets London, which supports families and individuals with autism.

The free story hour sessions will be on offer on Wednesday, August 24, at 11am at Wokingham Library, 1pm at Woodley Library, and 3pm at Lower Earley Library.

To book a place at an event, visit: www.dragqueenstoryhour.co.uk, or contact your local library directly.
