Richardson Texas packed the house last month for a visit from Markus Zukas, international bestselling author of The Book Thief. With almost 1,500 participants over three events, the Richardson Reads event as universally acknowledged by the event organizers as the best program in its 10 year history!
Richardson Reads One Book, a community reads program in Richardson Texas, is gearing up for the author reading of The Book Thief – an international bestseller and the basis of a soon-to-be released feature film. Readers in Richardson are so excited about their One Book selection, they snatched up the 1200 complimentary tickets in less than a day and a half! “The weeping and wailing of the procrastinators can be heard for miles,” says Susan Allison, the program coordinator. 2013 is sure to be a great year!
