Whether you’ve read the book Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein, or not—you are still invited to join the Readers’ Celebration that will be held on Saturday, April 8 from 12:00 – 2:00 pm at the Reading Municipal Airport at 2501 Bernville Road, Reading, PA 19605. This free event will celebrate the reading of this year’s One Book selection with a special appearance of the author! World War II displays, a slide show, music from the era in which the book is set, and refreshments all add up to an afternoon of fun and enjoyment for the public.
There will also be a reception catered by Isaac’s and a silent auction to benefit future One Book, One Community Programs. The event is FREE and open to the public, but participants are encouraged to register for the event at:

Guests are welcome to visit the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum before or after the Readers’ Celebration, which is a short distance from the event. Hours are 9:30am – 4pm. Last guided tour begins at 3 pm. (Fees apply for visitors to the Museum.)
This year’s OBOC regional campaign represents collaboration between 80 libraries in six counties: Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry and York. Reading campaign organizers encourage residents of the six-county region to read the book and attend programs during 2017.
