PBS has just launched a new initiative called PBS Books and we will be focusing on their schedule through the next months. In January they will be launching the new series based on James Herriot's All Creatures Great and Small so we will read (or reread in some cases!) and discuss it at our January 25th meeting. Books are available at the LME Library and there are some great resources from PBS Books listed below:
- Interview with Ben Vanstone who adapted the Harriot books for the new PBS series
- Q&A page about the new series
- About the author, cast and books (Did you know James Harriot is the pseudonym for James Alfred Wight?)
In addition, here is a book guide from the publisher and also a link to our shorter discussion sheet.
Tentative, the schedule outlined below should take us into the spring. The rest of the bookgroup selections will be decided together after the weather improves and/or restrictions have been lifted.
