We're partnering with WLTX all summer long to celebrate our love of reading!
As part of the WLTX Newsies Book Group, Brandon Taylor selected "March: Book One" to read throughout the month of August 2021. Here's his take on the Coretta Scott King Book Award-winning graphic novel, written by John Lewis and Andrew Aydin and illustrated by Nate Powell.
If you want to dive deeper into some of the themes from "March: Book One" that Taylor mentioned in his book review, click on the book discussion with the WLTX Newsies Book Group, below.
