CHESTER, Vt. — The Whiting Library will welcome local author and illustrator Jonathan Otto for a special family event on Saturday, Oct. 4, at 10:30 a.m.
A former Chester resident, Otto will read aloud from his illustrated children’s book Child of the Wild. The book introduces readers to the world of animal families through rhymes, science facts and vivid artwork.
Following the reading, Otto will lead an interactive limerick-building game designed to help children play with language and rhythm, an important part of early literacy development. Guests also can enjoy a mini-exhibit of Otto’s original illustrations from the book. The first 10 families to register will receive a free signed copy of “Child of the Wild.”
This free event is best suited for children ages 6 and older and their caregivers. To register, call 802-875-2277 or email [email protected].
