The Long Beach Public Library Foundation’s annual event, Long Beach Reads One Book-touched down at the Cal Heights Sunday Market this past weekend!  It was an honor to host the All Day Read and we are already looking forward to next year.  A big huge thank you to Sean Moor (of Bixby Books at the market), for organizing and overseeing the day.  We almost made it through the entire book, with readers lined up all day for their 10 minutes at the microphone.

Librarians, teachers, principals, poets, students, literary society members, neighbors and even a 1st grader read aloud from this year’s selection – The Soloist.  It has inspired us to start a book club, story time and all day reads of our own.  Next up?  You tell us!  Stop by the Bixby Books booth and suggest a book, sign up for book club and for the next read aloud event.
