Our Book Connection partnership has been even more exciting, successful, and diverse than we originally envisioned back in 2003! As a community, we have read nonfiction accounts and essays, novels, and short stories. We would like to challenge ourselves to diversify the project even further by trying a new genre - reading a dramatic text together in 2014-2015. Won't you recommend a play for our consideration? The deadline for nomnations is Friday, March 29, 2013.
