Mr. Bacon entertains with a reading from Despereaux at our Community Reads Kickoff on January 18.

All community members are invited to join us in reading The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo, the story of a small mouse's quest to save a kidnapped princesses.  The book is a Newbery Medal winner and is appropriate for all ages.  The book was selected due to its many themes in encouraging positive choices based on character and diversity, and its potential to pique the interests of people from various generations.  Book discussions will take place throughout January and February, and the program will conclude on February 28, 2007. Discussion groups will meet throughout our community to share their learnings.  We invite you to join us!  Please contact Lisa Osur, High School Library Media Specialist, for more information.
