The Adult Book Club will meet in-person at the Library on the second Friday of each month. There is an option to join the Book Club online via Zoom; you must notify Linda at least one day before the scheduled meeting date to get the zoom link: reimerl@stls.org
The book selections today will be Let Me Tell You What I Mean by Joan Didion (149 pages) and Tuesday by David Wiesner (32 pages).
Let Me Tell You What I Mean: These pieces from 1968 to 2000, never before gathered together, offer an illuminating glimpse into the mind and process of a legendary figure. They showcase Joan Didion’s incisive reporting, her empathetic gaze, and her role as “an articulate witness to the most stubborn and intractable truths of our time” (The New York Times Book Review).
Tuesday: The unpredictable events of a particular Tuesday unroll before the reader’s eyes with the precision and clarity of a silent movie in this Caldecott Medal-winning book. In this ingenious and imaginative nearly wordless picture book, frogs in a pond lift off on their lily pads and fly to a nearby town where they zoom through a woman’s living room, encounter a dog playing in his yard, and distract a bathrobe-clad citizen from his midnight snack. Who knows what will happen next Tuesday?
