La Ratoncita Presumida / The Vain Little Mouse
Saturday, November 07, 2026
11:00am–12:00pm

Puppet show presented by Venezuelan Americans, Melissa and Carlos Bertran. A bilingual (Spanish/English) story from Venezuela. In this story, the tiny heroine thinks herself much too fine to accept the proposal of a common mouse. Instead, she sets her sights on 'worthier' matches, such as the sun, the wind, and the mountain. Yet, her search for the perfect suitor brings her right back to the romantic little mouse who first proposed. This show was developed with the guidance of Venezuelan Americans and features Venezuelan music. A truly bilingual experience!

Our bookmobiles aren't the only things that get around. One of the goals for new staff is to become familiar with businesses and locations in downtown Ridgefield, and these two staff members met this goal, and took the branch manager with them.
