Library to Host Discussion of Brooks' Zombie War Thriller

Also, a special musical date for newborns, toddlers.

You've seen the movie, but have you read the book? The summer blockbuster "World War Z," starring Brad Pitt, introduced millions of people to Max Brook's "as told to" history sci-fi thriller. The book's original style, and unique take on the zombie genre, make the book ideal for discussion—and you can join in a discussion at the library at 7 p.m Oct. 29.
