Library:
Week 4 of the SYNC free audiobook program: May 16 – 22
Natural or man-made, disasters can change what “home” means forever. In Spill eleven men paid the ultimate price while countless others who call the Gulf Coast home found their lives irrevocably altered. In Meet the Sky it all started with an accident. One that caused Sophie’s dad to walk out of her life and left Sophie’s older sister, Meredith, barely able to walk at all.
A link to download the audiobooks is on the library’s homepage and posters about the current pair of audiobooks are in the library window.
