BOISE, Idaho – Our environment is the focus of this year’s “Let’s Talk About It” community reading program hosted by the Ada Community Library and The Peregrine Fund’s World Center for Birds of Prey. The theme – Our Earth, Our Ethics – will be explored through five books that deal with the challenge of balancing human activity and the natural world. The drop-in discussions are free. No registration is required. “Let’s Talk About It” is sponsored by the Idaho Commission for Libraries, with support from US Bank and the Idaho Humanities Commission. Each book will be addressed individually at biweekly meetings that begin Saturday, Jan. 26. Discussion leaders will guide each session. The books are available on loan from the Ada Community Library. Jan 26 : Indian Creek Chronicles by Pete Fromm (1993) This non-fiction account of the author’s seven months at a remote fish hatchery in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness reads much like a novel. Fromm writes with humor and intensity as he meets the challenges of isolation and intense cold. Discussion leader : Louise Ackley. For more information click here. See this interactive map for the location of the Ada Community Library.
