Welcome to the
Town of Windsor’s 4th annual community-wide book discussion.
The objective of One Book, One Windsor is to
create an appreciation for the importance of literacy. This
program will also serve to create a spirit of community. It is
an opportunity for people of different ethnicities and cultures
to connect, share ideas and foster an appreciation for
literature. It has been said that "When many people of
different ethnicities, cultures and backgrounds share the
experience of reading a single book at virtually the same time,
the natural outcome is an exchange of thoughts and a sharing of
ideas and opinions. That common ground strengthens the
community, builds new friendships, and promotes a love of
reading."
Beginning in late May, the town will launch its community
book read and everyone can participate by picking up a copy
of the featured title at the Windsor Public Library or the
Wilson Branch Library. A schedule of local book discussions
can be access by clicking on button on left hand side of
this page. The author of
“Bagel and Grits, a Jew on the Bayou”,
Ms. Jennifer Anne Moses has been arranged to appear at a
reception in Windsor Town Hall on October 23, 2008. Ms.
Moses will be available for a question & answer session as
well as an autograph signing for those with their own copies
of the book.
