Storytime & Author Signing with Brittany Petish

Join us for a heartfelt storytime and author signing featuring Goodbye, Blue by Brittany Petish, creator of the beloved True Heart Tails children’s book series.

Goodbye, Blue tenderly explores love, loss, and remembrance, helping young readers understand that even when someone we love is gone, the memories and love they leave behind continue to shine. Perfect for children navigating the emotions of losing a pet—or any loved one—the story opens the door to meaningful conversations in a comforting, age-appropriate way.
