Ramona by Helen Hunt Jackson-December 14th @ 1 pm

We are reading "Ramona" by Helen Hunt Jackson for the next book group meeting.  We will be meeting in the Russell Room @ 1pm.  Available for free as a downloadable e-book from Project Gutenberg, "Ramona" is often compared to Harriet Beecher Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" for its attempt to influence social policy.

Several movies, as well as a TV series, were produced.  A clip from the D.W. Griffith production is available for viewing is available via YouTube 

Discussion questions for "Ramona" are available here in a handout made available by StoryLines America.  Please join us for what could be an interesting conversation!
