Read20 Book Club Selection for March

Did you know? If families read together for 20 minutes a day, 7 days a week, they get more than 121 hours of bonding time every year! That's a great reason to join Read20, the First Lady of Tennessee's book club for children and families.

Get ready now for the March selection! It's Independent Dames: What You Never Knew About the Women and Girls of the American Revolution by Laurie Halse Anderson. You've all heard about the great men who led and fought during the American Revolution. But did you know that the guys only make up part of the story? The ladies played a part, too! Read this book with your children, and learn together about the heroines of the American Revolution.
