Storytime Live on Facebook
Friday, August 6, 2021
Join the Museum Curator of History on select Friday afternoons for Story Time live on Facebook followed by a short activity you can do at home. This week we will be reading “The Man Who Walked Between the Towers” by Mordicai Gerstein. Hear the story of Philippe Petit, who, in 1974, threw a tightrope between the towers of the World Trade Center and spent almost an hour walking, dancing, and performing tricks a quarter mile in the sky. The towers are gone, but their memory, as well as the space between them, are celebrated in this Caldecott Medal winning book.
