Reading Into the Future: Local women's club will boost libraries, independent bookstores with new initiative


WASHINGTON COUNTY — When Women’s Club of South County (GFWC) member Suzan Amoruso was brainstorming of a new, charitable activity the volunteer service organization could undertake, she considered a world reshaped by the pandemic and one of the public institutions she enjoys most.
“I was trying to think of something contact-less that the club could do and I also love libraries,” said Amoruso. “Then I thought these independent stores are struggling.”
Now through the end of the month, GFWC members will purchase sought-after books requested by six local libraries across five Washington County towns and donate them to the libraries on April 4 through April 10, National Library Week. All books will be purchased at Wakefield Books and were specifically requested by the libraries due to demand.

Children's Books Honored For Disability Narratives


by Shaun Heasley | January 28, 2021
"Get a Grip, Vivy Cohen!" and "When Stars are Scattered" are among the books being recognized by this year's Schneider Family Book Awards. (Penguin Random House)
Tales about a girl with autism and a boy who’s nonverbal are among the books being honored for portraying the disability experience as part of a prestigious award given alongside the famed Newbery and Caldecott Medals.
The American Library Association said this week that it has named three winners and four honorees for its annual Schneider Family Book Awards.
The awards recognize authors and illustrators for books aimed at each of three age groups: young children, middle grades and teen. To qualify, stories must “portray the emotional, mental or physical disability as part of a full life, not as something to be pitied.”
