Libraries
Anna Christina takes part in many community events such as Family Fundraisers and charity events. She began volunteering at libraries to help keep libraries alive and buzzing when they started to close down. She believes libraries are important places, not just for children but for everyone.
"I enjoy doing Storytime with parents involved as I love to see how they react to my stories too. I'm pleased to say they are as popular with parents as they are with children and this makes me very happy indeed!"

Anna Christina has had successful workshops with the Polka Children's Theatre. Learning and participation are at the heart of her work, encouraging children to explore and develop creatively. Not only was Anna Christina a professional Ballet dancer and musician, she was also a professional singer which makes her Storytime particularly engaging.
MCM Comic Cons
Anna Christina has performed her Storytime at large venues, including ExCel London and at the NEC in Birmingham, for MCM Comic Con. She performed stories specially written and composed for these events including her new Music Audio Stories, Superhero Bugs and Happy Halloween!

Absolutely amazing. Initiative to get children interested in reading. The music adds a new dimension to storytelling. Full of fun and interaction for all ages.

Expressive, interactive, and exciting for all. The children loved taking part during the session. I highly recommend this style of storytelling.
