Event Details
Join us in welcoming local teen author Iris M. Stockwell as she shares a reading from her debut book, The Poems of a Tea Enthusiast, which reached #1 on Amazon’s Best Sellers list in Teen & Young Adult Coming-of-Age Fiction.
At just 16 years old, Iris crafted this collection of poems to reflect her journey of growth and ambition from ages 11 to 16. Through poetry, she connects with others her age, exploring themes of love, friendship, life, and dreams. Iris is a Midwest native, and has been a member of our Teen Library Council for several years.
A conversation will follow the reading, and books will be available for purchase. Her latest novel, The Canvas of Our Regrets, a poignant story of loss and love through the eyes of artists, will also be available.
Come support young local talent, and be inspired by Iris M. Stockwell!
