Event Description

The Kelsey’s “Read and Look” program is a great first trip to the museum—providing visitors with opportunities to explore past and present cultures and connect with others. This event is free and open to everyone but is intended for children ages 4–8.

Inspired by supermodel Georgie Badiel’s childhood in Burkina Faso, The Water Princess tells the story of Princess Gie Gie, who endeavors to bring clean water to her small village. Each morning, she embarks on the long journey to the well with a heavy pot atop her head, dreaming of a day when her village will have an ample, clean supply of water. This vibrant, engaging story—written by Susan Verde with illustrations by Peter H. Reynolds—highlights the global issue of water scarcity and instills hope for a future in which all children have access to clean drinking water.
