Join us for Little Chick by Amy Hest, the fourth book in our Pre-K Story Time series at Billings Farm & Museum. Little Chick may be a good and patient gardener, as Old-Auntie observes, but what if you simply can’t wait for your carrot to grow tall? What if you skip like a pro but still can’t lift your kite in the air? Or if you’re a really good stretcher but can’t reach your favorite star? With affection and humor, Amy Hest offers three vignettes about a curious chick and a loving auntie who knows how to soften disappointments by keeping the spark of wonder alive. The story will be followed by a visit to the farm’s chicken coop, a chick- themed craft, and a snack.
