National Book Award Week by Elizabeth Baber
During National Book Award Week, I invite you to take a look at what the world is reading. Books have been powerful vessels of knowledge since man began writing—before that even! In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Even if what’s popular isn’t your cup of tea for leisure reading, knowing what ideas are being spread and how people feel about them is a valuable part of engaging in modern society.
National
On a national scale, I invite you to tune in for the 76th National Book Award ceremony and find out what books our nation is ranking in favorites.
Local
On a more local scale, I invite you to check out the American Council of the Blind’s bookclub. Debra tells us enthusiastically about the club here!
