Alexander Posey (1873-1908) was a Muscogee poet and writer. His poems celebrate the history of Indigenous peoples and the beauty of the natural world. Paige Pettibon is a Tacoma-based artist who incorporates her Indigenous and Black culture in her work. She identified as a painter from an early age but has added sewing, creative writing, digital art, and jewelry making into her repertoire. Her paintings lean toward a realistic style with a focus on portraits. However, she also enjoys exploring new ideas and techniques. Pettibon's studio practice centers around building community within culture and identity with various art forms. She believes we can create social change through creative expression by sharing our narratives.

***STARRED REVIEW***
"A dreamy, succinct poem across many pages that all together encapsulates the sense of fall. A strong first purchase. The poem and artwork, which create an exquisite sense of a child's joy in playing on an autumn afternoon, will appeal to all ages."--School Library Journal
