This Saturday morning, October 7 at 10:30 a.m. everyone is invited to join Karin Gertsch, local children’s author of Flora Has An Adventure, at the Sawyer Free Library at 21 Main Street in Gloucester. The Essex author will shares her story about Flora, an Ameraucana chicken, and her adventure spending the day on an outing away from the farm. Children will get the chance to meet Karin’s life-size, hand-made Ameraucana chicken and handle her soft, real chicken feathers. The author will also offer facts about chickens and answer questions.

Registration not necessary. For more information visit sawyerfreelibrary.org.
