As part of the citywide book club SLC Reads Together, schoolteachers will receive information on how to teach their students about the children and young adult titles, A Wrinkle in Time and The City of Ember.
Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson and city school Superintendent McKell Withers kicked off the second round of the book club Wednesday at Day-Riverside Library. The city chose two young-adult titles to emphasize children’s literacy. The adult title is Plainsong.
Copies of all three selections will be distributed throughout the city by the Utah Humanities Council at public locations such as coffee shops and coin laundries. Books with the sticker "Tag - You’re It!" are free and meant to be read and passed on to others. The Humanities Council wants to track some of those books to tell the stories of their journeys throughout the city.
