Book of the Month

“What we focus on grows” is a quote from Life is Good by the Jacobs brothers. In 2022, I would like to focus on our community health and knowledge.

I am going to start recommending a book each month in hopes that it will promote the following:

• Encouraging everyone to read more

• Learning something new

• Improving literacy skills

• Expanding our communities knowledge

• Creating icebreakers for those that have read it

• Giving you options to add to your reading list

Thank you for your support. I hope you enjoy some of my selections.
