For Children, Families
Location: Galaxy Hall

Celebrate the Wolf Moon (January's Full Moon on 1/25) and learn about wolf conservation efforts with a presentation (geared towards children 3-8 years-old) and a storytime reading of, Trumpet the Miracle Wolf Pup: Trumpet Finds Love! The Trumpet book series was written to introduce young children to the joy of learning about wolves, wolf conservation and saving critically endangered species. Trumpet called the Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem her home, and in this newly published title we learn how she found love. To learn more about the Wolf Conservation Center and their programs browse their website: The Wolf Conservation Center. There will be a fun craft activity following the reading and presentation. January’s full Wolf Moon reaches peak illumination on Thursday, January 25, 2024, at 12:54 P.M. EST. It’s thought that January’s full Moon came to be known as the Wolf Moon because wolves were more likely to be heard howling at this time. To read more about the Wolf Moon here is an entry from the Old Farmer's Almanac. Also, stop by the Trove in January to check out the display of wolf-related books!
And, try the Trumpet book series!:
