About the event:
A quiet child in a boisterous family, Emma Wen dreams of a world that is peaceful and silent. When she reads about the blue whale – with a heart so big her father could stand in it – she fashions a boat out of household objects and sails from her bedroom into the mouth of a whale, where she settles in happily until another child arrives inside the whale and is loud and noisy!
To find out what happens, come to storytime. We’ll read together then create a fun art project afterwards.
This program is for kids age 3-7. Doors open at 9:45 A.M. All children must be accompanied by an adult parent or guardian for the duration of the program.
Advance registration is required for this program, and space is limited. Registration opens March 1, 2025. To sign up, visit https://tinyurl.com/Register-Childrens-Storytimes or use the QR code!
