Have you ever heard of a camelid? Can you tell the difference between an alpaca and a llama? Which one has the banana-shaped ears to go with its very wonky-looking teeth? What even is a guanaco?
If you're having trouble answering these questions, then we know just how to help! Come along to Llamas at the Llibrary and get up close with a llama (and some other camelids)! Join us for a special outdoor storytime where a llama-loving librarian will treat you to some stories that feature our long-necked friends, then we'll introduce you to our expert Stephen and his crew of camelids. You'll learn a little about camelids and the differences between them, then will have a chance to come up close and meet one of the animals you've just learned about.
Make sure you bring along your best listening ears (banana-shaped ears are optional) as you'll be taught the best way to approach your new animal friends. This is an outdoor event, so wrap up warm!
This Beyond the Page event is suitable for tamariki of all ages with their caregivers.
