Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Dr Tim Harrison said the popular program has been entertaining children for more than a decade.
"Storytime has become a treasured tradition of the Ararat Regional Library and it's great to see that after 10 years the community still loves Storytime," he said.
Grant and Kylee have teamed up with Tim Lewis at the Ararat Town Hall to bring Storytime and Rhyme-time to the digital world, taking full advantage of the opportunities that creating content online has to offer.
