STORY TIME WITH UŊČÍ & LALÁ

🗓️ June 23 | 🕥 10:30 AM | 📍 Museum Bookstore | 🎟️ Free Admission

Join us for another special Story Time with Uŋčí & Lalá as we share Dance in a Buffalo Skull by Zitkala-Ša, illustrated by S. D. Nelson, and published by the South Dakota Historical Society Press.

This engaging children’s book is a retelling of a traditional Lakota story. Inside a dried buffalo skull, a group of lively field mice dances and celebrates, unaware that danger waits nearby in the form of a prowling wildcat.

Through vivid storytelling and striking illustrations, Dance in a Buffalo Skull shares important lessons about awareness, safety, and survival on the Great Plains. At the same time, it celebrates storytelling traditions and the vibrant life of the prairie after dark.

Perfect for all ages—especially elementary-aged children! No registration is required—just come ready for a fun and educational experience.  Reading is followed by interactive cultural activities for all to enjoy.
