Teen Theater Reads
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian by C.S. Lewis

Wednesday, May 7, 2008
7:00pm-8:00pm, Twin Lakes

Instead of watching the movie on hard library chairs, read the book with us and then see the movie opening night in the theater! Book discussion will occur on a separate date, and theater location will be announced that night. Teens are responsible for their own transportation but a reduced ticket rate will be provided the night of the movie.
Contact Community Library for a copy of the book.
