YoJo visits Fredricksen!
Tuesday, July 30 at 10:30 am
Come meet a big, blue, wild and groovy creature – YoJo, a seven-foot living cartoon character! YoJo initially has a bad attitude about reading, but learns that reading can also be lots of fun. The show includes a short story from "The Prince and the Princess", in which YoJo acts out the part of the prince, and an audience member plays the role of the princess. All ages welcome. No registration necessary.
