Local author Deepa Iyer will lead a story time and activity at Bards Alleyfeaturing her debut children's picture book, We Are The Builders!, illustrated by Romina Galotta. Best for ages 3-7, but all ages are welcome to attend! The reading will be accompanied by an activity, engaging with a map of social change and coloring!
 
We Are The Builders! follows a group of children at a neighborhood Community Day. All the kids want to know where they fit in! Could they be builders, restoring old furniture for new neighbors? Or caregivers, nurturing friends who are sad or lonely? Or frontline responders, preparing for emergencies? What they discover is that there is a place for every person, a role to meet every need - and that collaboration is what makes their community strong.

This is a story that emphasizes the importance of collaboration and helping your community, with gorgeous and colorful illustrations to engage your little one. The event is completely free to attend, and you may pre-order the book below to guarantee your copy!
