Pride Story Time with Rob Kearney and Eric Rosswood

We regretfully announce that this event has been canceled.

Join us this  Pride Month for a virtual story time with Rob Kearney and Eric Rosswood to celebrate their new picture book Strong, a positive, affirming picture book that shows there are lots of ways to be strong, full of messages about self-love, confidence, and persistence.

 Rob dreams of becoming a champion strongman. He wants to flip huge tires, lug boulders, and haul trucks -- and someday be the strongest man in the world! But he feels like he can’t fit in with his bright leggings, unicorn T-shirts, and rainbow-dyed hair. Will Rob find a way to step into his true self and be a champion?   

Rob Kearney is the only openly gay professional strongman in the world. He is a North American champion, world-record holder, and a Pro Ambassador for Athlete Ally. Rob finds strength in taking pride in himself, support from friends and family, and working hard every day to make his dreams come true.
 

Eric Rosswood is an LGBTQ+ activist and the award-winning author of Journey to Same-Sex Parenthood and The Ultimate Guide for Gay Dads. He believes being strong means being true to yourself and strives to do that every day by being the best dad, writer, and friend he can be.

Join us and inspire your young ones to be their true selves
