A NEW chapter has started for mothers and fathers with young babies who want to meet up, read and talk about books with other avid readers in Leominster.
Liz Connolly, a mother of a 10-month-old girl, had the idea and has formed a new daytime book group at the town's library.
The group meet on the first Tuesday of each month.
It will be just like other reading groups - the only difference is that babies and small children can come along too.
"I really wanted to join a book group but I find it hard to get out in the evenings," said Liz.
"This will be a chance to read with a purpose and discover books that I might never have tried before and not worry about trying to get a babysitter."
Anne-Marie Dossett, Herefordshire Council's reader development librarian, said the authority is right behind the idea.
"This is a great opportunity for mums and dads to get together to talk about the books they love," she said.
