Sat
Meet the Author Storytime with Caroline Stutson
Start: 10:30 am
Highlands Ranch: Local children’s author Caroline Stutson works as a puppeteer and storyteller at the Highlands Ranch Library. Stutson will host this special storytime and read from and sign her new picture book Cats’ Night Out ($15.99 Simon & Schuster). In Cats’ Night Out, it’s just a quiet evening in the city. Or is it? As the sun sets in the sky, dancing felines take to the streets and rooftops for a night on the town. Come along one night on Easy Street as a pair of cats starts to groove to the beat. Count the cats by twos (and hunt for their number hidden on the page!) in this foot-tapping, finger-snapping counting book. Visit Caroline Stutson’s website.

Rocky Mountain Land Series with Kathleen Dean Moore
Start: 2:00 pm
Historic LoDo: Literary naturalist Kathleen Dean Moore will read from and sign her new book Wild Comfort: The Solace of Nature ($15.95 Shambhala). In an effort to make sense of the deaths of several loved ones, Kathleen Dean Moore turned to the comfort of the wild, making a series of solitary excursions into ancient forests, wild rivers, remote deserts, and windswept islands to learn what the environment could teach her in her time of pain. This book is the record of her experience. “Wild Comfort is a richly poetic book, tipsy with life, and Moore a wonderful guide to the wilderness and our own wildness. It’s a book brimming with wonder, sorrow, happiness, and the intricate designs of nature that can surprise and sustain us all.” —Diane Ackerman, author of The Zookeeper’s Wife Visit Kathleen Dean Moore’s website.
