Big Read Kick Off
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
This year the Irving Public LIbrary is having three times the fun by hosting three events to start the month long Big Read program. Whether you enjoy jazz and classic cars, Houdini-inspired magic or dressing up to parade your favorite pet, we have something for everyone! Besides all the fun to be had, you can pick up a free copy of this year's selection, F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, The Great Gatsby, or alternative books for children, Dave at Night by Gail Carson Levine, while supplies last. Go to The Big Read for details.
