A celebration of resilience, family bonds and the power of nature with Dr. Dale Atkins
Dr. Dale Atkins, author and Today Show-featured expert and psychologist, will take part in a meaningful and uplifting conversation with Library trustee Liza Van Gundy on Atkins' children’s books, Dear Deer and The Turquoise Butterfly — helping young readers and their families navigate big emotions, build resilience, and connect more deeply with the world around them.
Together they'll explore how storytelling can support children and families through life’s challenges, from managing anxiety and embracing change to fostering empathy and strengthening intergenerational bonds.
Perfect for families, this event offers a chance to come together, reflect, and discover simple, powerful ways to nurture emotional well-being and connection across generations.
This event is presented in partnership with The Center for Senior Activities.
