We’ve been having a great time talking to our patrons about The Big Read as we give away copies of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. We particularly enjoyed our time with The Friends of the Petaluma River a couple of weeks ago. Though younger readers aren’t as familiar with Mark Twain as was my generation, they are usually game for checking it out, and it never hurts to have reminiscing adults near by to describe all the fun they had with the book.
Over at Big Read headquarters, the National Endowment for the Arts folks took notice of the Free Bookmobile’s “Mark Twain Exchange” and conducted a brief interview. You can check it out at:

Though the formal project runs through April, we are, of course, The Big Read all year long! We’ll be giving away Twain for as long as the good people of Sonoma County keep recycling him through our little trailer…
