October Book of the Month

 The Reading Public Schools Learning & Teaching Team selected "Buzzing with Questions: The Inquisitive Mind of Charles Henry Turner" as our October Book of the Month. 

“Buzzing with Questions” is a biography of scientist Charles Henry Turner.  The story highlights the curiosity and dedication of Dr. Turner and his quest for understanding animal/insect behaviors.  It explores the challenges he faced as a black man in the south in academia in the 1800s/early 1900s.   This book is a beautiful way to touch upon many themes including significant messages about curiosity and learning, scientific method, biology, questioning, and more.  

We encourage you to visit the Reading Public Library or Whitelam Books and enjoy this great title.  Happy Reading!
