On Tuesday, October 8 at 7:00 p.m., in conjunction with Bartlett’s book discussion, retired pediatrician Dr. Skip Small will explore the many complexities of sex and gender determination. He will attempt to increase your understanding of why we, as humans, can not always be simply defined physically and mentally as male or female. An open mind is encouraged, but not required. Prior knowledge and/or experience not necessary. Appropriate for teens and older. A 45 minute talk followed by Q & A.
Bartlett
Birds of the White Mountains
In the book The One-in-a-Million Boy, the boy fills the bird feeders for 104-year-old Ona Vitkus as part of his Boy Scouts community service. Birds are discussed several times throughout the book, as part of the boy’s listmaking practice and also as a topic for new acquaintances that bridges generations (much like the weather).
Bartlett Public Library will host a presentation on this accessible and fascinating topic, Birds of the White Mountains, by expert David Govatnik on Tuesday, October 17 at 7:00 pm. For more information, call the library at 603-374-2755.
