In Other Words: Frank Lloyd Wright

Are you itching for a good book but not sure what to pick up? Look no further.

Every Tuesday evening, the will provide Greenfield Patch a themed list of recommended reads for you or your children to get lost in, a feature we're calling "In Other Words."

One week it might be five classic books for children 5 and under, the next it might be the five-best "How To" books the library has to offer. As baseball season approaches, maybe you'll see a list of five great baseball books.

The only way to know for sure what the library suggests you check out is to come back every Tuesday and see for yourself...
