Owen and Mzee

The library this week was focusing on the story of Owen & Mzee, the hippopotamus and tortoise who became very good friends after hurricane Katrina. We had story time to ourselves for awhile, since the preschool that usually shows up was late, and no one else came. We danced to Jim Gill music and ran around the room naming shapes and colors, after making construction paper hats in honor of the Owen & Mzee book that we read.
