One Book One Freeport 2025

One Book One Freeport is a biennial community read program hosted by the library. Community Read Programs work to promote literacy while engaging an entire community in a common reading experience!

We are trilled to announce this year’s titles – Dandelion Wine by Illinois writer Ray Bradbury for adult & teen readers, and for younger readers, Memory Jars by Vera Brosgol.

Bradbury’s novel is a magical re-imagining of the summer of his 12th year and touches on the themes of memory, life and loss, family, and the wonders of childhood.

The book give-away party will be Saturday, January 25, 2025 at the Library and will feature live music, community crafts, refreshments, and more. Pick up your free book and enjoy live music from the Early Jazz Society, tasty snacks, a community craft activity, and a puzzle for everyone to contribute to! After the book giveaway, the library hosts a variety of programs to explore, including film screenings, group discussions, Storytimes, and crafts!
