Kids’ Poetry Event

  • City of Highland Park 1707 Saint Johns Avenue Highland Park, IL, 60035 United States (map)

April is National Poetry Month! Celebrate on April 12 with Highland Park's Poet Laureate, Laura Joyce-Hubbard, and the authors of Leaf Town Forever, Kathleen & Beth Rooney! The fun will take place at Ravinia Elementary School and will include a special reading and activity. A children's book written in haiku, Leaf Town Forever tells the story of a Midwestern "town" created with leaves, sticks, and children's imaginations. After reading the story, Beth and Kathleen will guide children to write their own haiku and create a drawing to commemorate a place that is special to them.

Books available for purchase from Secret World Books. Presented in partnership with North Shore School District 112.
