Join us for a special story time with author Kelly Crull as he reads his latest book, The Chick-O-Saurus!

Look out! A dinosaur is loose in the library! A silly, surprising STEM story time adventure awaits in this humorous, action-packed exploration of dinosaurs based on Crull's new book from National Geographic Kids. Interactive activities are included!

Kelly Crull is an award-winning children’s author, illustrator, and photographer who loves making kids laugh and ask, “Wait...what?!” His books blend science, adventure, and a bit of silliness to bring complex topics like conservation and the environment to life through playful, engaging storytelling. Kelly lives in his home state of Iowa with his wife, three children, and a backyard full of avian dinosaurs.
