Read Island
Two Vail Valley residents have teamed up to create a unique children’s picture book called Read Island. Slated for release on October 5, 2021, the story embodies the lifelong passion for books and nature that brought these locals together. Written by longtime bookstore owner Nicole Magistro and illustrated by acclaimed artist Alice Feagan, the clever and colorful story touches on many themes including outdoor adventure, the joy of reading, environmental stewardship, and the importance of meditation and mindfulness. Read Island was inspired by the very real and remote place by the same name off the coast of British Columbia, where Magistro’s family has been visiting for more than two decades. In the book, a brave girl sets sail on a reading adventure with her book-loving friends – a studious fox and a stowaway mouse. The trio head out to find a magical island made of books, populated with characters including a moose who loves to cook, an eccentric Kermode bear, a tattooed humpback whale, and a singing sea wolf. www.readisland.com 26
