A Mr. Ropes Tall Tale

This is a recording created during the February 2024 Tall Tales & Fish Stories Camp at Penobscot Marine Museum. For information on upcoming children's camps and other programming, visit penobscotmarinemuseum.org.
Campers started with a true story about Mr. Ropes the cat who sailed from Boston, Massachusetts to Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1892. They then re-wrote the story using their imaginations! Then they created the necessary additional puppets and illustrations to share their story. Enjoy!
Special thanks to Gloria, Bea, and Aloysius for taking a lead on this project and to Pip, Ruby, Reese, and Daria for their support.
