Join in the fun, free, literary frolics at the Poets House--a nonprofit poetry library and literary center in Lower Manhattan. The children's programming includes Ecopoetic Futures, a series of events that examine poetry and the environment. This Saturday get ready to hear The Little General and the Giant Snowflake with Matthea Harvey.

Renowned poet Matthea Harvey reads from The Little General and the Giant Snowflake, her tale of a little general and his Realist army who attempt to fend off the imagination. Illustrator Elizabeth Zechel also leads a snowflake-making workshop.
