May Email Edition Reply by May 12th For this month, book club member - and all adults! - are welcome to answer the following four questions regarding "The Last Runaway" by Tracy Chevalier. Email your answers to Alison at adults@beaconlibrary.org by (and including) Tuesday, May 12th. Alison will then compile everyone's answers and email them back to everyone using first name only. The questions are: 1. What roles does silence play in this novel? 2. What friendships meant the most to Honor? Were they surprising? 3. How important is quilt-making to Honor and society at the time? Is a quilt just a quilt or much more? 4. Who, in this novel, is searching for freedom? In what way?  LEGO Club @ Home Challenge
