Book Launch–Robin’s Song with Lynn Levine and Friends

In Robin’s Song, Robin, dealing with loss and anxiety, leaves Brooklyn to come to live in a small Vermont town with her cousin Darcey.  Through nature, music and poetry, the tweens bond, while Robin learns skills to deal with her emotions.

Author Lynn Levine will speak about why she wrote Robin’s Song and about her personal story of dealing with mental health challenges.

Carol Compton, Education Programs Director for Brattleboro Music Center, will discuss how music both heals and empowers and their approach to helping students deal with their emotional self.

Ann Gengarelly, a poet, who runs the Poetry Studio, will talk about the ways poetry supports the emotional health of young people and empowers them.

Michael Clough, Executive Director of Museum of Natural History will talk about their approach to the topic of how nature heals and empowers, specifically focusing on their approach to working with preteens.  He will bring a live animal.
