Have you seen the boy who lives in the forest?
...If you are quiet, you can hear him whispering...

A storybook collaboration project.

The Boy in the Forest is a children’s book written by Dustin Glaseman that will come alive on the walls of the Kayes Community Gallery this winter. Displayed alongside Dustin’s tale of magic and whimsy will be original illustrations by local artists who will bring to life a woodland realm replete with hognittles, treecreakers, frostnips, and a chorus of other creatures.
