A spirited coming-of-age tale, adapted from Judit Berg’s children’s book about the Verdies, the tiny, but brave guardians of the lake. Youngsters are not allowed to fly on warblers, row alone, or ride wild frogs at the rodeo until their green hair turns brown, but one of the Verdies can’t wait to grow up, and he jeopardizes the lake’s safety when he becomes a little too curious. Age 5-9 ($10)
