As part of the Bookstock celebration, joins us for a reading of the children's book Hucks Way Home, with Kristina Rodanas (author), craft project (making Huck ears), following the path of "Huck's way".
Kristina Rodanas is the author and illustrator of more than twenty-five picture books for children including “Dragonfly’s Tale,” “Dance of the Sacred Circle,” and “Follow the Stars.” Her work has been described as “vibrating with color,” “lyrical,” and “dancing with life.” Her latest book, Huck’s Way Home is based on the true adventure of a week-old American Milking Devon steer who escaped within minutes of his arrival at Billings Farm & Museum in Woodstock, VT. Illustrated with stunning images of the Vermont landscape, “Huck’s Way Home” describes the incredible journey of the brave, little calf as he galloped through the streets and paths of Woodstock, searching for his way home. Formerly of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Kristina now resides in Woodstock, Vermont. Kristina will read from Huck’s Way Home. Participants wil lmake their own Huck Ears headbands, then set off on their own adventure, following a portion of Huck’s route [weather permitting, River Street to Billings monument in River Street cemetery] Children wearing their Huck Ears will receive free admission to the Billings Farm & Museum.
