Discuss the latest best sellers with the Moorhead Public Library! This month we'll meet to discuss "The Backyard Bird Chronicles" by Amy Tan.

Join the Moorhead Public Library's Best Sellers Book Club and see what the buzz is about in the latest popular books! In May, the group will discuss The Backyard Bird Chronicles by Amy Tan. In this beautifully illustrated collection of essays and musings, Tan turns toward the natural world for solace in a time of strife--and only has to go as far as her backyard. This meditation on nature and life is a brilliant springtime read for anyone needing a moment of peace.

Borrow the book from our catalog here.

The Best Sellers Book Club is a Monday Meetup on the second Monday of each month!
