Even while we are physically apart during COVID-19 we can come together through reading and sharing a great story. #FISHERSCITYREAD #INTHISTOGETHER #IDEASLIVEHERE
Meet Gobi
Through a partnership between the City of Fishers and the Hamilton East Public Library, we are going to be reading the inspirational story of a man and his new found friend, Gobi. This story follows an ultramarathon runner, Dion Leonard who ran across the Gobi Desert and was adopted by a stray dog along the way.
A Story for Everyone
For this Community-wide read, we’ll be leveraging our Library’s hoopla digital collection that includes three different versions of the story that will be perfect for readers of all ages and abilities!
For Adults |
