STORY TIME CALENDAR/SUMMER READING PROGRAM

The Lives of Brian
by Brian Johnson
This is Miss Carrie's pick for the month, only on OVERDRIVE! If you are a fan of AC/DC, hear lead singer, Brian Johnson, tell his story narrated by himself. Read along with the book, also only on OVERDRIVE to see family and band photos. Highly entertaining but not for the faint of heart.
