Birmingham
Public Library Presents the
3rd
Annual Read It Forward |
This
fall, the Birmingham Public Library’s (BPL) teen Read It Forward
selection starts off early with a bang, or rather, an eruption! The
non-fiction book
Bodies from the Ash by James M. Deem has been selected to be
read in conjunction with the Birmingham Museum of Art’s Pompeii
exhibit. It tells the story of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79
A.D. and the destruction and preservation of the Roman cities
Pompeii and Herculaneum. Visit any BPL location to pick up your
free book, log onto the library’s web site at
www.bplcyberteen.org to post your comment, and then “Read It
Forward” (pass the book) for someone else to read! The Birmingham
Public Library will host book discussions, a special visit from the
author of Bodies from the Ash and other events. |
