stories of the numerous souls who have braved the Colorado
in Grand Canyon. River gear and historical artifacts complement
the visitor’s river-level Grand

the award-winning book Writing Down the River: Into
the Heart of the Grand Canyon, and the companion one-hour

Santan Junior High Staff book study -
Santan Junior High 1550 E. Chandler Heights Blvd. Chandler 85249 As encouragement for teachers and classified staff to read more fiction outside of the school day, the media center sponsored a "One Book Arizona" book study group. The staff that was reading the book "These Is My Words" communicated through email about what they were reading and if they were enjoying the book. Personal connections to the story were explored through the staff. The culminating activity was a get together at a staff member's home to talk about the book in person.
This was VERY successful with over 30 teachers or classified employees participating. It was open only to the Santan Junior High Staff. Stephanie Emery 480-883-4601 emery.stephanie@chandler.k12.az.us

58th Ave. Book Club -- How Wild Was It?
Velma Teague Branch Library 7010 N. 58th Ave. Glendale 85301 Paul Hietter, Ph.D., a faculty member of Mesa Community College, will bring needed insight when he presents “How Wild Was It? An Overview of Crime and Justice in Arizona Territory.”
According to Dr. Hietter, writers often use sensational anecdotes to describe conditions in the Trans-Mississippi West during the 1800s. The West, these incidents suggest, was a violent and crime-ridden place where ineffective criminal justice institutions forced citizens to take the law into their own hands. This presentation provides a fascinating glimpse into the Arizona Territory’s justice system using data from court cases and newspapers, and explores the types of crimes most commonly committed and the justice system’s response to them.
The program is co-sponsored by the Arizona Humanities Council. Bette Sharpe 623-930-3431 bsharpe@glendaleaz.com

Children's author Susan Lowell visits the Library!
Prescott Valley Public Library 7401 East Civic Circle Prescott Valley 86314 This event will be located in the Children's Program Room, 2nd floor.
Join us for a fun afternoon when Susan Lowell, author of this year's OneBookAZ selection for children, visits the Library!
Ms. Lowell's book The Three Little Javelinas, is a Southwestern version of The Three Little Pigs. The story would probably appeal most to children in the K-3 age group; however, older children may be very interested in what the author has to say about the book, ie how she got the idea, what she did to get the book published, etc.
All ages welcome!

Susan Lowell, Author of The Three Little Javelinas / Los tres pequeños jaba
Chino Valley Public Library 1020 West Palomino Road Chino Valley 86323 2010 OneBookAZ for Kids Book winner
Everyone knows the story of the three little pigs, but now you are going to meet the three little javelinas - wild, southwestern cousins of pigs. Living in homes of built of tumbleweeds and cacti, the first two javelinas are soon running from the hungry coyote, who had hoped to eat them with red chili sauce. And where do they go for shelter? Why, to their wise sister, who made her house with strong adobe bricks.
Although she happened to be born in Chihuahua, Mexico, Susan Lowell is a fourth-generation Arizonan descended from explorers, ranchers, prospectors, and schoolmarms. At the age of seven she began to write little books, illustrating them with crayons and binding them with Scotch tape, and she has never stopped.
