Me with Chelsea and Cayla at Kyle Library
Last Friday my owner and I took a quick trip down the the Kyle Public Library to see if they were interested in us doing one of our book reading/capybara encounters. Before the library opened, I met with some new friends, Shirley Bauder and her two granddaughters Chelsea and Cayla. Shirley took all the photos you see in this post. (Thanks!) I loved having the kids feed me blueberries, which are one of my very favorite treats.
When the library opened, they asked me if I could stay until 10:30, which is story time for the little kids. Well, we weren’t very prepared but then you don’t have to be when you have a cute animal like me around to provide the entertainment.
My owner got to talk a little bit about Celeste and the Giant Hamster, although it is really for an older audience than we had. And she gave a copy to the library so that all the local kids can read it. Plus we got invited back for an official book reading/capybara encounter. We still have to pick a time and date for that. I will let y’all know when it is settled.
This brings me to a point:
If you would like to have me and my owner visit your local library or your classroom, just drop us a line via the contact button on the left sidebar. We love teaching people about capybaras and rodents in general. If you are a 3-5th grade class and have read my book, I would LOVE to come and talk to you. (My owner needs constant positive feedback or she gets all paranoid that no one likes the book.)
Hello! I was wondering where in Texas to find Capybaras. My family and I have become very interested in them, and are wondering where to find local breeders. We love to read stories and watch videos about Capybaras, and Caplin Rous the Cpybara has become one of our favorite figures to watch on YouTube.
Thank You!
