Editor’s note: This press release was provided by the Town of Pelham Public Library. The Pelham Examiner publishes press releases in the form received as a service to the community.

Come to the Town of Pelham Public Library on Tuesday, April 4th from 1-2 pm for a very special Story Time with Pani (that’s how we say “Mrs.” in Ukrainian!) Luba. We’ll hear her tell the Ukrainian folk story, “The Mitten” and Aesop’s fable, “The Grasshopper and the Ants”. Afterwards take a close look at the beautiful displays she and her husband created for each story. You will also decorate your own paper mittens!

This program is for adults and children ages four and up.

Many adults have fond memories of hearing the story of “The Mitten” and remember its message of tolerance, compassion and inclusivity. Come to the Library to experience the magic of “The Mitten” again and learn about this story’s Ukrainian roots.
