About the event
St. Louis mother- daughter author duo Arika Parr and Ava Johnson’s picture book, BUT WHAT CAN YOU DO? comes to the stage! Ava is not so good at cartwheels, and after many attempts - and just as many tumbles - she feels defeated. With a little encouragement from her family, Ava makes an exciting discovery: though she may not be able to do some things, she has countless other talents. Ava uses her new-found confidence to help others across St. Louis celebrate all the things they can do!
All performances are at The Sun Theater, 3625 Grandel Square, St. Louis, MO 63108
