The children interacted with office Shrader, asking her questions after Storytime. Later, they helped themselves to tasty home-made cookies that were donated by Monessen Mayor Matthew Shorraw.
The ‘Cookies With a Cop’ event will be held for children on the third Monday of each month at 6:00 pm. Marsha Adams, Monessen Library Children’s Coordinator, started the program with the Monessen Police Dept.
“I think it’s good for the kids to know their police officers, so that they’re not afraid of law enforcement authorities,” said Adams.
Parents are welcome to bring their children to this monthly event, held upstairs in the Children’s Department of the Library.
