Join us on Zoom as we welcome Robert Broder, author of the picture book"Our Shed: A Father-Daughter Building Story." He'll be reading the book.
Just in time for Father's Day, we'll have a virtual visit from Robert Broder. Inspired by the story, we will have kits available to make your own bird feeders. Kits will be available for pick up at both locations starting Monday June 14th.
Our Shed is A sweet, nostalgic father-daughter story, Our Shed celebrates DIY families as well as the unique creativity and spontaneity of each individual child.
This lovely story is about a father teaching his daughter how to build a backyard shed for storing the necessities of family life–a lawn mower, sprinkler, sleds, kid toys. For each practical element the dad brings to the project, his daughter adds her own imaginative creative spin. In the end, they are both happy with their collaboration.
And, just as dad passes building skills on to his daughter, so does his daughter eventually pass those skills on to her own son when they fix up the peeling shed at the end of the story.
Kids love tools, building things, and spending time with parents. This story hits all those points with love and humor. Copies are available for purchase through Booked.
Register and a Zoom link will be sent out the day before the event.
