Books & Bites
Monday, May 18
6 PM
Starbucks in Canandaigua

Want to read a great book and then discuss it with other teens?  On Monday, May 18 at 6 PM, meet up with other teens from Wood Library's book discussion group, Books & Bites, at Starbucks in Canandaigua.  This month, teens will be reading The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, a story about Jurgis Rudkus, a Lithuanian immigrant working in Chicago’s infamous Packingtown. Instead of finding the American Dream, Rudkus and his family inhabit a brutal, soul-crushing urban jungle dominated by greedy bosses, pitiless con-men, and corrupt politicians.  Definitely a highly discussable book!  Contact Jenny Goodemote at 394-1381 or jgoodemote@pls-net.org for more information.
