STORY TIME WITH UŊČÍ & LALÁ
The Rough-Face Girl
July 12, 2022 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
Today our story is The Rough-Face Girl by Rafe Martin; illustrated by David Shannon.
About the story: In an Algonquin village by the shores of Lake Ontario, many young women have tried to win the affections of the powerful Invisible Being who lives with his sister in a great wigwam near the forest. Then came the Rough Face girl, scarred from working by the fire. Can she succeed where her beautiful, cruel sisters have failed?
