River Reads

 

The River Reads program is a reading program for adults. The selection in 2011 is Coming Back Stronger, By Drew Brees with Chris Fabry.

Click on book jacket and follow instructions to place a hold.

"In the aftermath of one of the most devastating natural disasters in U.S. history, the city of New Orleans needed a hero. What they got was a Saint.

After Hurricane Katrina ravaged the Gold Coast in 2005, the residents of New Orleans desperately needed something - anything - to believe in. And after being told he might never play football again due to a horrific shoulder injury, quarterback Drew Brees needed a team that believed he could still play ... and win.

What happened next is nothing short of providential."

River Reads begins in May 2011.
