The Prior Lake Friends of the Library welcomes Amy Jerabek Pendino, author of The Witness Tree: A novel, to the Prior Lake Library for a book reading and signing. Ms. Pendino will read from her debut novel, discuss her writing, and answer questions from the audience. Join us as we celebrate reading at the library.

From the novel abstract: "A tree in rural Iowa bears witness to generations of human experience--and deadly secrets...Vivid depictions of small-town bonds, young love, racism, and women who've dreamed and been denied make The Witness Tree a moving, page-turning debut novel."
