Overview
October is having a party, and you’re invited! The forest is changing in the Adirondack mountains. Bright greens of trees are turning to dusty golds, crimsons, and oranges. The whispering voice of October is blowing through the branches… The air is getting colder; the leaves are starting to change. The animals are flitting and scurrying and preparing in anticipation, but for what? Join Mouse, Chickadee, and Chipmunk, Loon, Bear, and Moose, Beaver, Fox, and Squirrel, and all the creatures and critters of the forest as they prepare for Autumn in this beautifully illustrated children’s book by author and illustrator Caitlin Friebel. October is Having a Party is a reminder to look deeper into the nature around us and find beauty in the falling leaves, humble pinecone, and moss-covered branch. Through gorgeous watercolors and a playful story of Fall forest festivities, Friebel showcases the wonder and magic of the changing seasons. All are invited to October’s party!

Reviews
October is Having a Party will definitely be added on my coffee table for my fall decor. The illustrations are breathtakingly beautiful and the text enhances the already gorgeous book. This author/illustrator brought her very best to this lovely book. I will get this in the hands of all my grandchildren, but it is a work that will delight adults as well! --Elizabeth Hugo, Author of Life Lessons From My Papa This gorgeous new children's book felt like a warm hug on a crisp fall day. Caitlin's artwork draws you in from the first page and by the end, I felt like I was going to be attending the party. What a great new addition to the children's market! --Sarah Galvin, Children's Buyer at The Bookstore Plus

Author Information
Caitlin Friebel is a self-taught artist and small business owner. She owes her love of watercolors to her mom who first encouraged her to pick up a paint brush. Nearly 20 years later, Friebel is still primarily working with watercolors, with works ranging from floral arrangements and landscapes, portraits, animals and black-and-white armed forces and first responder memorials. She has also branched out to other assorted mediums and handicrafts, including acrylics on canvas, hand mixed watercolor paints, painting with coffee and custom wedding invitations. Born and raised in upstate New York, Friebel grew up in a homeschool family with her parents and six siblings and now lives in the northern Adirondack Mountains with her incredibly supportive and encouraging husband and their two adventurous little girls.
