Local Chicagoland authors Beth and Kathleen Rooney read from their debut picture book Leaf Town Forever. The book, illustrated by Betsy Bowen, is based on a true story and tells a gentle tale of a town created by children with vivid imaginations, and, of course, leaves. Unfurling over the cycle of seasons, this timeless saga captures the fleeting beauty of creative play, reminding kids and adults alike that some dreams are worth protecting. Enjoy hearing a reading from Beth and Kathleen along with leaf-related crafts and a brief haiku workshop. Books will be available for purchase through Dandelion Bookshop. Beth RooneyWhen Beth isn't writing children's books with Kathleen she is out taking photos for clients throughout Chicago. As a writer and photographer, she is drawn to stories that explore our place in the world and how individual circumstances add up to reflect larger truths. She is passionate about photography, writing, food, culture, and immersive travel. Kathleen RooneyWhen she's not writing books with Beth, Kathleen helps other authors with their books at Rose Metal Press, a nonprofit publisher of literary work in hybrid genres, and writes poems on demand for strangers with her fellow typewriter poets as a founding member of Poems While You Wait. She is the author of the novels for adults Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk and Cher Ami and Major Whittlesey, and her latest poetry collection Where Are the Snows, winner of the XJ Kennedy Prize, was released in Fall of 2022 by Texas Review Press.
