About this event

We'll read a few pages of the book together and learn about other folk tales written by Galdone. Then, stick around until 5:30 when we'll meet a real, live cashmere goat. Cody and Kateri Sargen of Aisling Farms in Greenfield Center will be on hand to introduce families to our goat visitor and answer any questions they may have. Please register online.
