Story Time: Alyson Waters presents My Valley
From award-winning translator Alyson Waters comes a lovely rendering of My Valley, Claude Ponti’s most celebrated classic of French children’s literature. In My Valley, we are led on a journey through an enchanted world inhabited by “Twims” (tiny, adorable, monkey-like creatures), secret tree dwellings, flying buildings, and sad giants. The clever language and beautifully detailed maps of imaginary lands will delight children and adults alike. Join Alyson for a journey deep into the lush, lovely dreamscape of My Valley, at our interactive story time! Ages 3 to 8.
