Please join us in the LA Library on November 13th to discus Nation by Terry Pratchett:
Set in a parallel universe, on a tropical island that has been devastated by a massive tsunami, Terry Pratchett’s Nation tells the story of Mau, a boy who has lost his family, his nation, and (he thinks) his soul. But, Mau is not alone: the daughter of the English king has been shipwrecked on Mau’s tiny island too. This is an amazing story about survival, loss, and the creation of community.
Stop by the library to pick up your copy of the book – all are welcome!
