Local author Meg Cappel visits St. Anne Catholic School to share her new book “Tell Me About Your Apple Festival.”
In this story, “Betty can’t wait for the Murphysboro Apple Festival, but she’s not quite ready for bedtime! In this heartwarming children’s picture book, a cozy bedtime conversation with her mom reveals how the festival has brought joy to their family for four generations. As Betty listens to stories of apple pies, parades, and laughter, she discovers how family traditions connect hearts across generations.”
You can purchase a copy of this sweet book locally at Bell House Books in the Ice House Mall.
