Caz libraryChildren and their families are invited to the Cazenovia Public Library Saturday, Aug. 13, at 2 p.m., for an exciting, hands-on presentation by author and performer Lolly Hopwood. This unique book-reading event, held in the Community Room, will feature live music, fun fitness games, and a healthy dose of imagination.

Lolly & YoYo are a Philadelphia-based duo that uses high energy, interactive live music and fitness shows to inspire kids to embrace a healthy lifestyle. They perform for thousands of children every year at music venues, libraries, schools, and zoos, employing a variety of fun props, such as parachutes, scarves, shakers, puppets, pool noodles, and bubbles. They made their national television debut on Sprout’s Sunny Side Up Show in March 2013. Through imaginative adventures, paired with lovable songs that you’ll be singing for days, Lolly & YoYo shows leave families invigorated and smiling, and kids asking for more.

In addition to entertaining and inspiring children through their performances, Lolly & YoYo have co-authoredMOVE!, a unique book designed to foster both a love of reading and a love of physical activity in young children through imaginative play and movement. “Hold it up to your face like a big pair of jaws and ROAR and STOMP like a dinosaur. Hold it by the die-cut handles to swing in a hip-to-hip motion while ROWING like a canoe. Or hold on tight and SPIN like a flying saucer (http://www.workman.com/products/9780761187332/).” Copies of MOVE! will be available for purchase following the show.

This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Cazenovia Public Library.
