You’re Too Little with Katie Stewart
Join Katie Stewart as she shares her delightful new book, You're Too Little. After the reading, kids can enjoy fun puppet games that bring the story’s themes to life—believing in yourself, recognising your strengths, and giving your best to every challenge.
To finish, children will get creative with a hands-on craft activity, making their own pygmy possum through colouring, cutting, and gluing.
