North Birmingham Regional Library staff selected their favorite books for the month of April.

Today, Wednesday, April 10, is National Library Outreach Day, a part of National Library Week (April 7-13)

We are celebrating by allowing staff members at North Birmingham Regional Library to select their favorite items from our collection.

The April selections are as follows:


 This 2006 YA novel features an enslaved girl to showcase the horrors of the African slave trade. The book shares the story of two 15-year-old girls, one a slave and the other an indentured servant, who escape their Carolina plantation and try to make their way to Fort Moses Florida, a sanctuary for escaped slaves.


 Published in 1939, this award winning novel features the story of a family looking for work during the dust bowl.


 This graphic novel is a collection of 14 Kafka short stories. Each story features stunning visuals and is perfect for lovers of the weird and spooky. 


 This engaging exploration of world mythology is such an interesting read, perfect for lovers of mythology!
