Professor Watermelon visits Indianapolis Public Library branches across the city this fall with a storytime about trees. Apples, cinnamon and maple syrup all come from trees, and kids discover how people, animals and insects depend on trees for food and shelter.
The storytime is free and best for children ages 2 to 6 with a caregiver. No registration is required.
