Join us for our monthly Book Chat! This FREE event is low-key and we always have a great conversation! All adults (18+) of all genders are invited.
We are located at: 140 S River St. Suite 114, Aurora
This Book Chat pick is Peaceful Neighbor by Michael Long. We do not usually think of Fred Rogers as radical, partly because he wore colorful, soft sweaters made by his mother. Nor do we usually imagine him as a pacifist; that adjective seems way too political to describe the host of a children's program known for its focus on feelings. We have restricted Fred Rogers to the realm of entertainment, children, and feelings, and we've ripped him out of his political and religious context. This book takes a look at the countercultural Fred Rogers.
Light refreshments will be provided.

We have also asked Yellow Bird Books to order a few copies if you'd like to purchase your book locally.
As always, this is a low-key book club, so there's no need to finish the book (or even read the book!) beforehand. We'd still love for you to join us for the conversation.
The Perch is a wellness center in downtown Aurora helping you rest, heal, and grow. Learn more about our offerings here: www.theperchplace.com
