Hamilton Reads 2020 - Join the Conversation
Hamilton Reads is Hamilton Public Library's community-wide book club and more. This year, we discuss and delve into Moon of the Crusted Snow, by Waubgeshig Rice.
As a small northern Anishinaabe community grapples with dwindling food, power and cell service, panic builds when an unexpected visitor arrives from the south.
Author Waubgeshig Rice is from Wasauksing First Nation. He is also a journalist and radio host of CBC Up North.
We have compiled a list of goals for eager readers to take on, if you wish. (No pressure, just fun.)
Join in on our online discussion.
