Readers unite for "World Book Night"

What famous literary personage (supposedly) both came into and left this world on April 23?  If you guessed William Shakespeare, scholars mostly agree that you're right!  Organizers of World Book Night selected April 23 in part for its significance as the Bard's birthday (and death day).  Celebrate the second annual "World Book Night" by setting tonight aside for reading.  Turn off your TV, turn off your phone, and settle into a quiet spot with a good book, or read one aloud with your whole family!  And don't forget to encourage your friends to follow your example.  As always, Mastics-Moriches-Shirley Community Library is your source for great reading material.
