#1 New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Letts is coming to the library to discuss her new novel, Finding Dorothy!

This richly imagined novel tells the story behind the book that inspired the iconic film, through the eyes of author L. Frank Baum's intrepid wife, Maud, and is set against the backdrop of her growing friendship with Judy Garland as the movie is being filmed.

Please join us for a weekend full of Wizard of Oz fun to celebrate Elizabeth Letts' visit! In addition to the events listed below, please enjoy Wizard of Oz displays and an 'Oz'some photo op spot at the library throughout the month of February! Did you know 2019 is the 80th anniversary of the film premiere of The Wizard of Oz? Let's celebrate!

This program is made possible by the generosity of Books & Company, which will be on hand to sell copies of the book.
