Join us for a delightful hour as Patricia O’Hare brings her new children’s book, Ollie Smallie’s Dangerous Discovery, to life in an interactive reading perfect for kids of all ages!
🌟 About the Book
Meet Ollie, a juvenile smallmouth bass, and his best friend Rita, an elver eel, as they explore a new part of the Great River and run into a concerning garbage dump. With the help of some mysterious “bubble creatures,” they learn it’s okay to ask for help—and discover how pollution affects wildlife. Inspired by Patricia’s experiences as a scuba diver and her passion for riverside ecology, this charming tale highlights environmental stewardship while celebrating friendship and curiosity!
✨ What to Expect
A live, interactive reading full of engaging dialogue and questions
A chance for children to learn about protecting wildlife and waterways
Fun discussions inspired by Patricia’s experiences and the Green Rockets Rising Program
We’re thrilled to share that Patricia recently visited the Green Rockets Rising Program at Morristown Central School, where students were inspired by her story and participated in wildlife-friendly activities. The children loved exploring how to live more consciously and kindly toward local habitats 💚.
