Don't be shy ... come and join the brigade!
Help us celebrate the launch of Kimberly Behre Kenna’s debut middle-grade novel, Artemis Sparke and the Sound Seekers Brigade, the first book in her new Brave Girls Collection. Find out the backstory of this book through the author and why it is set on the CT shoreline. Learn about “artivism” and ways that you can make a difference by creating inspiration flags based upon the tradition of Tibetan prayer flags. Make environmental activist buttons, taste book-themed treats and talk about ways YOU can make the world a better place.
Artemis Sparke is a heartfelt and humorous story of a group of underdogs who conjure up the ghosts of historic ecologists to help save a salt marsh and appease Mother Nature. An empowering read about the importance of finding voice, this book will strike a chord with kid activists everywhere. So, won't you join us on Take Your Child to the Library Day for this fully interactive experience?
