*Dr. Rosie Helps the Animals! Author Presentation and Activity!
Thursday, April 18 from 4:00 – 5:00 PM
Do animals get earaches? Sore throats? Stomach aches? Who helps them if they can’t talk? Meet the author and illustrator of Dr. Rosie Helps the Animals, an award-winning STEM picture book based on and informed by real-world veterinarians. Jennifer, the author, and Rozillia, the illustrator, will first tell the story behind the story of Dr. Rosie and then engage kids in an interactive reading.
Following the reading will be a hands-on activity where kids (and their grownups) learn how to evaluate, diagnose, and treat a stuffed animal. Each participant will receive their own mini vet kit and diagnostic/treatment sheet to take home. This program is best for children ages 4-8. Please plan to attend and be engaged with your child for this program. Children should bring their own stuffed animals. Registration required HERE!

This program is designed for children ages 4+ and accompanying adults. Please plan to attend and be engaged with your child for this program. Registration required HERE!
