Learn about American Girl's Girl of the Year 2021 - Kira Bailey!  We'll head to Australia and learn about its many habitats and unique animals. We'll talk about biodiversity and why it's so important for a healthy planet. Author Erin Teagan will share her experience taking care of koalas and wombats and kangaroos during her visit to an Australian wildlife sanctuary and we'll brainstorm ways we can keep habitats safe. Attendees will be put into a drawing to win their very own Kira Bailey doll, courtesy of American Girl and Mattel! A Zoom link will be emailed prior to the event. Grades 4-8. (R)
