Program Description

Event Details

Celebrate National Pet Month by meeting local Darien author, Lisa Thorén, who is the co-author of the picture book, The Love of a Dog. Lisa co-wrote the book with her daughter, Lindsay Thorén Berg, as their family always had a dog and they wanted to write a story about appreciating the love of a dog.

Families will enjoy a read-aloud and conversation with the author, followed by an art activity facilitated by the author/illustrator. 

Ages 3 and up.
