Join us for our weekly Saturday Story Hour in the children's department, always free and open to all.
On Saturday, August 22, we will have a very special guest for our Saturday Story Hour! Author Jennifer Moorman will share her new picture book Willa and the Way Home, lead a group activity, and sign copies of the book, the first in a new series called Adventures with Willa the Wonder Pup.
No registration required.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Meet Willa-a wiggly, floppy-eared German shepherd puppy with paws the size of pancakes, a heart as big as her bark, and a knack for big adventures
In this heartwarming dog picture book for kids ages 4-8, moving day takes a surprising turn when Willa chases a butterfly straight out of the backyard...and gets lost in her brand-new neighborhood. What follows is a puppy adventure story about bravery, friendship, and finding your way home.
With the help of Rudy the cardinal and Pumpkin the cat, Willa learns that being brave doesn't mean doing everything alone. Sometimes bravery means asking for help and trusting that friends will guide you back where you belong.
Perfect as a bedtime story or classroom read-aloud, this sweet animal friendship picture book explores themes of courage, social emotional learning, and adjusting to a new home.

Is ideal for ages 4-8
