A touching family afternoon with reading, self-worth, and strong messages
On September 19, 2026, families can expect a special children's experience at the Youth Library Kassel: Dayan Kodua will read from her empowering book If My Hair Could Speak. The event starts at 2:00 PM and is aimed at children aged 3 and up, their families, and all interested parties.
A reading that empowers children
The focus is on a child-friendly story about identity, diversity, self-worth, and the right to set one's own boundaries. For families, this becomes a valuable learning experience that connects children's laughter, curiosity, and important conversations with each other. Especially for small children, the reading opens a gentle, comprehensible access to topics that often have too little space in everyday life.
More than just reading: exchange and practical impulses
After the reading, there will be a hair workshop for parents of Black children. This complements the afternoon with a practical part that combines knowledge, exchange, and support. Thus, a family experience is created that not only entertains but also strengthens and provides orientation. The combination of reading and workshop makes the event particularly valuable for families looking for inspiring quality time together.
A safe and family-friendly place
The Youth Library Kassel is known as a meeting point for children and young people and offers barrier-free access, WC, and changing table. This makes the place very suitable for a family-friendly event. The calm library atmosphere supports focused listening, relaxed arrival, and pleasant interaction.
Why the visit is worth it
This reading connects literature, empowerment, and family closeness in a way that takes children seriously and provides parents with practical points of reference. Those looking for a child-friendly, free, and content-rich event in Kassel will find a special afternoon with meaning, warmth, and plenty of conversation topics for home.
A visit is worthwhile for all families who want to experience an inspiring reading with educational value. Mark your calendar now and discover the reading live in Kassel.
