 One City, One Story  

One City, One Story:
Support the Program

 

 


Pasadena's successful One City, One Story began in 2002 with the selection of Mark Salzman's The Soloist and was followed in 2003 with Leif Enger's Peace Like a River; in 2005 with Khaled Hosseini's The Kite Runner; in 2006 with Octavia Butler's Kindred, and in 2007 with Bo Caldwell's The Distant Land of My Father.  Once again the program drew strong community participation.

                                 ENGAGING ALL OF PASADENA

April 2008 is the month for the next communitywide reading fest.
