Join us for an outdoor storytime. We will take a short walk around the library, stopping at each page of the book (printed on a weatherproof stand up signboard). As we move from page to page, will will get some excercise in a whimsical way (following the fun directions on the sign!)

Story Synopsis:

This is a beautifully told and illustrated story of a boy and his grandfather who struggle to communicate, and this leads to confusion, frustration, and silence. But when they sit down to draw together, magic happens. They discover they share a love of art and storytelling, and they work together to build an imaginary world even words can’t describe. Young children who have a hard time communicating with grandparents or other relatives across divides of language, culture, and age differences will be inspired to find creative ways to bond. They’ll also delight in the vibrant artwork and the way much of the story is told through the illustrations.
