Orlando by Virginia Woolf Tuesday, June 14th, 10:30am

Ten years ago, it was hard to find inspiring books about the environment. “They’re all sad,” complained my daughter. “Who wants to read about everything dying?” But that was then.

April is National Poetry Month, a time to celebrate the important role poetry plays in our culture, not only as a beautiful literary art, but as tools for self-expression, activism, and social commentary.

The South Side: A Portrait of Chicago and American Segregation by Natalie Y. Moore - 305.8 MO 

The Teen Winter Reading Club has ended, and the reviews have all been published. Here's the final list of what the teens in Wilmette read this winter!

One book I read this winter was How To by Randall Munroe, author of What If and Thing Explainer. How To is a book that takes a mundane thing, solves it in an absurd way, and then uses science to figure out how that would work.

I read Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline. I like this book because it has lots of unexpected twists like having an AI attack and break the main character’s worst enemy out of prison, breaking up with the new girlfriend, or the newest tech turning out to be bad.

With the arrival of spring, our attention shifts to the outdoors including the garden - raking, tilling and planting. But what about the indoors? If you're planting coneflowers, herbs, and lettuce outside, why not cultivate balance, well-being and good vibes inside?
