Cheetahs used to roam India's grasslands and jungles, but as farms expanded and cities grew, India's cheetah population dwindled... to nothing.
Seventy years later, hope--and cheetahs--returned to the Indian subcontinent. From a coalition of cheetahs sent from Africa, Aasha and Pavan are chosen as the first cheetahs to repopulate the land. Will they survive in their new home? Will they thrive? Will India finally see a return of their beloved cheetahs?
Bring the kids and join us for a special Saturday Morning Storytime with local author Kate Rietema as she shares her delightful and informative picture book Cheetahs Return to India! Beginning at 11:00am, this engaging session will feature a lively read-aloud, time for kids to ask the author their questions, and an interactive craft to take home.
Perfect for families, young readers, and anyone who loves stories that connect us to the wider world. Come spend your Saturday morning exploring, creating, and celebrating the joy of reading together!
