One Book, One City for Kids 2010One Book, One City for Kids is an annual reading program encouraging 4th, 5th & 6th graders to read and discuss the same book each winter. The program also strives to encourage a life-long love of reading among middle school-age readers, inspire readers to bring story ideas and themes to life through discussion, and build collaborative ties between public libraries, school libraries, and area schools.This year the entire city will be reading The Fabled Fourth Graders of Aesop Elementary School by Candace Fleming. In this book, a hilariously rambunctious group of kids, fearlessly led by a globetrotting, Mayan-ceremonial-robe-wearing teacher named Mr. Jupiter, learn many lessons, including "He laughs best who laughs last," "Be careful what you wish for - it might come true," and "Slow and steady wins the race.."
