Storytime With Suzanne Lang, Max Lang & Rachel Ignotofsky

Join us on the patio for a double-dinosaur storytime! We’re incredibly dino-xcited to welcome three (!) New York Times–bestselling creators—and their new dinosaur-themed books—to storytime!

Suzanne Lang (author of the beloved “Grumpy Monkey” franchise) will share “Archibald and the Furry Dinosaurs,” the story of Archibald, the only bald dinosaur in the world. And author Rachel Ignotofsky will share her latest, “Dinosaurs: Exploring Prehistoric Life and Geological Time,” an entertaining, educational, and strikingly illustrated guide to Earth’s prehistoric eras and animals.

Illustrator Max Lang will join Rachel in leading a drawing activity, and we’ll also have dinosaur-themed coloring sheets on hand.

MORE ON “ARCHIBALD AND THE FURRY DINOSAURS”:

Long ago, in the time of prehistoric preening, all dinosaurs have fur. All except for one. Meet Archibald.

When Archibald embarks on a dangerous quest to find his lost locks, he encounters danger at every turn. Along the way, he outwits the clever Woollyciraptors, rescues two dinosaurs from getting eaten, and even encounters the dreaded Furannosaurus Rex! While he may not end this story with even a strand of hair on his head, he does begin to see that his life is wonderful as it is. As he discovers, it’s better to focus on what you do have, not on what you don’t.
