Book inspired by museum otter
Much of the inspiration for the book came from the musem’s very own river otter Squeak! While writing the book, Curtis visited with museum staff member Linda Hannah to learn about how our otters are cared for. Many of the images in the book are based on photos she took during her visits. Hannah is mentioned in the book as the person who takes care of Braden’s sweet little Squeak.
Along with Curtis’ reading and signing, there will be a visit by our museum otter along with a selection of “original otter art” available for sale in our museum store. Curtis’ book “Saving Squeak: The Otter Tale” is also for sale in the museum store. To learn more about Curtis and her many children’s books, visit her web site at http://jenniferkeatscurtis.com/
