Grand Marais Public Library is pleased to present Brave Girls & Wise Women with Rose Arrowsmith DeCoux on Monday, August 5 at 1 p.m.
Join Rose Arrowsmith DeCoux for a storytelling adventure and hear how Tatterhood battles a band of trolls, Manka solves impossible riddles, and Vasalisa dares to knock at the witch’s door.
Daring heroines reclaim fairytales as fierce, funny, and feminine. Program length is 60 minutes, intended for youth ages 7-12, but appropriate and enjoyable for teens, mixed age audiences and adults. Stories will likely be too long for kids younger than 6.
