THE BIG READ Project: Mockingbird

THE BIG READ Project: Mockingbird encourages people to read and discuss a single book and promotes the enjoyment of reading as a community.

A great book combines enlightenment with enchantment. It awakens our imagination and enlarges our humanity. It can even offer harrowing insights that somehow console and comfort us. Whether you're a regular reader already or a nonreader making up for lost time, thank you for joining the Big Read. ~ www.projectmockingbird.org.

Pick up a copy today of To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee at Homewood Public Library.

Join us at the library and enjoy An Evening with To Kill a Mockingbird Wednesday, April 16th at 6:30 pm. Nancy Anderson, Alabama Humanities Foundation Road Scholar, will delve into some of the myths underscoring the subtlety, complexity, richness and honesty of the Alabama classic To Kill a Mockingbird. Light refreshments will be served. All ages are welcome.
