Garnet Health Hosts Book Signing with Local Author Kiki Ollie

MIDDLETOWN, NY (Nov. 21, 2025) — Garnet Health Medical Center will host a special book-signing event with local author Kiki Ollie for her new children’s book, Oh, How You Sparkle! A Love Story for Every Child. The event will be held on Wednesday, December 10, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at the Garnet Health Medical Center Gift Shop, 707 E Main St, Middletown, NY. Celebrate a story inspired by the miraculous moment of the birth of Kiki’s granddaughter at Garnet Health Medical Center.

Oh, How You Sparkle! is Ollie’s first children’s book. Writing it revealed her passion for creating stories that remind children they are uniquely special and deeply loved. This tender story features a spirited little star who longs to join the human world, capturing the hearts of parents, grandparents and all who cherish a child.

Ollie calls both Atlanta, Georgia, and the Hudson Valley home. In the book, you will find illustrations that pay homage to both locations.  

In addition to the book signing, the event will feature local vendor Lisa Bedosky of Momma B’s, who will sell homemade cookies.

The free event is open to the public. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. To learn more about Ollie, visit her website KikiOllie.com.
