Event Description

Veterinarian and author Dr. Lucy Spelman will read from and sign her book, The Rhino with Glue-On Shoes, which offers an amazing behind-the-scenes look at exotic animals and the people who care for them. Whether it’s a root canal for a 3000-pound hippo or an anorexic moray eel, these stories vividly portray the lives of zoological veterinarians and also provide insight into the incredible bonds that humans can forge with animals. Now in paperback, her book is a staff and community favorite, so please don’t miss out on this wonderful event.
