Storytime - Shine Bright Little Moonbeam

Join author Jenna Dempsey for a reading of Shine Bright Little Moonbeam at Gateway Farm!

From the Author

I am a Mom that feels deep and loves the Moon. I wrote this book as a way to connect the two, and remind myself, even through the toughest tantrums, that every feeling is just a phase. From my heart to yours, I hope this book brings more light in on dark nights.

From the Back Cover

Just like the moon moves the tides, the moon's energy in its different phases can impact how we feel. This book is meant to be a guide for kids, and maybe even adults, to better understand emotions and how they change, phase to phase.

​I hope this book helps open up conversation and curiosity as you and your kids explore the cycle of the moon and examine the feelings that pop up along the way.

Tickets: $5 per/kid for children 3 and up. Family Bundle for $15. Caregivers are free, children under 2 are free. 

The farm is full of stories to explore! We will be gathering with authors and other friends on the farm for a picture-book story time interspersed with activities and games. We'll read a different book and explore different themes each time. After we read and play, we'll take a short walk on the farm to apply what we've learned and experience our story in real life! This program is intended for young readers aged 3-6 and an accompanying caregiver.
