Author Barbara Stuber will join us for a discussion of her heartwarming novel, Crossing the Tracks.

Crossing the Tracks will be this month’s Book Club selection on Friday, June 1st at 10:00 a.m. If you already have your own copy, bring it along. Barbara will be happy to sign it after the discussion.
