LEWISTON/AUBURN COMMUNITY READ 2023

Welcome to the 3^rd Annual Lewiston/Auburn Community Read with the Lewiston and Auburn Public Libraries.

---

This year’s book pick is Maxi’s Secrets by Lynn Plourde, a Maine author.

A community read event is a shared reading experience where members of the community all read one book. By having access to and reading the same book it further builds our depth of community in our cities by a shared act. Parents, business owners, students and community members can discuss the book and the thoughts it brings forward while building a culture of literacy.

Join us on Tuesdays, May 2^nd and May 16^th at 4PM in the Children’s Department at the Lewiston Public Library for a Maxi’s Secrets kids book club.

All programs will include snacks and each participant will receive a free copy of the book to keep. This program is recommended for ages 10 and up and no registration is required.
