Join us for a storytime under the sea with Nic Yulo and special guest Rowboat Watkins!
Calling all mermaids, krakens, and sea creatures galore! Join us for a special sea-themed storytime with Nic Yulo, reading from her newest picture book OUT OF THE BLUE, and Rowboat Watkins, reading from his much-loved book MABEL: A MERMAID FABLE.
Out of the Blue:
In this touching story, a girl and an octopus unexpectedly connect over feeling small in a big world.
Coral has big dreams about grand adventures—but it’s hard to go after these big dreams when you’re the smallest in the class and feel completely invisible. During a school trip to the aquarium, Coral finds a kindred spirit in Kraken, a small octopus who knows that being invisible isn’t always a bad thing.
When Coral finds herself in the aquarium after everyone else goes home, she learns that being seen isn’t always about how big you are.
Mabel: A Mermaid Fable:
A lovely and laugh-out-loud picture book from the award-winning author of Rude Cakes and Most Marshmallows.
A silly read-aloud tale for kids about being yourself! Mabel isn't like the other mermaids. Lucky isn't like the other octopuses. But when they find each other, they discover that true friendship isn't about how you look, and that sometimes what we are searching for is right under our noses.
The inimitable Rowboat Watkins is back with another humorous tale about being true to yourself.
