Reading Together
This March The Portage District Library, in conjunction with the Reading Together program, invites people of all ages, from all walks of life, to read and discuss important issues raised by a single book. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, by Mark Haddon, is the 2007 Reading Together book.
This year, we are offering two ways to participate in this program.
Portage District Library is offering Book Discussion in a Bag kits with 10 copies of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. You can share with your book group, a group of friends, co-workers, or any group you want to share the book with.
In addition, we are offering a wide variety of programs that relate to the themes of The Curious Incident: how people relate to animals and deal with disability .
Reading Together is a collaboration of libraries, health and social service agencies, the media, local governments, educational institutions, civic, cultural, and religious organizations, and businesses throughout Kalamazoo County who offer programs and book discussions featuring the current year's book. You can find more information on the Reading Together web page, including a handy calendar of events, a pull down menu with events by location, previous years programs, and more information as the program opens officially in March.
