Bring your young Jedi to the library to train their brain with books and a Jedi Master.
Is the force strong with your little one? Perfect for preschoolers and early elementary students who are Star Wars superfans, we will read books about the Jedi, practice some lightsaber skills, and maybe even meet a real Jedi.

Situated on the edge of a busy city neighborhood and within easy driving distance of farms and country-dwellers, Hessen Cassel Branch has been a lifeline for the community since its doors opened in 1972. The library serves as a meeting place for customers of all ages, and is heavily used after school. Hessen Cassel Branch intentionally supports the developmental needs of customers of all ages. From wooden blocks, puppets, and play clothes for children; to classes on art techniques, budgeting, and Allen County history; to an ever-changing collection of print, AV, and electronic materials; we serve a dynamic neighborhood that is rich in cultural and ethnic diversity.
