• Visit any Birmingham Public Library location and pick up a free copy of Tears of a Tiger by Sharon M. Draper (while supplies last).
• Read the book.
• Log onto www.bplcyberteen.org, enter the book’s tracking identification number and leave a comment.
• Pass the book forward for someone else to read.
• Log onto the library’s web site often to track your book as it travels from reader to reader and to see what others have to say about the book.
