School is just about over for this year, and it's starting to feel like summer, finally! "Catch a Great Book," our adult summer reading program, is set to start on June 26. We're going to be having weekly drawings, and readers can pick up entry forms at the circulation desk. Beginning on June 26, you can drop off completed entries at the center display, and our first drawing will be on June 30.


Later in the summer we'll have at least two book discussions on the newly published memoir, The Good Good Pig: The Extraordinary Life of Christopher Hogwood by Syd Montgomery. Booklist has said about this book, "Joyful and serene, smart and friendly, Christopher soothed many a troubled heart, and Montgomery writes with extraordinary lucidity, candor, and grace about what this good, good pig taught her and others about life, love, happiness, and all that we share with our fellow species on this precious planet." Extra books have been ordered, and should be in soon for readers who plan to join the discussion.
