Joanne >>> ALCDGG@langate.gsu.edu 08/30/00 09:51 AM >>> I just came across this book title in Literacy Update (Sept., 2000), a newsletter of the Literacy Assistance Center in NY: The Mother-Daughter Book Club: How Ten Busy Mothers and Daughters Came Together to Talk, Laugh, and Learn through their Love of Reading. By Shireen Dodson. New York: Harper Collins, 1997. I have not read this book, but here is what the newsletter states: "The Mother-Daughter Book Club" tells the story of how ten mothers and their adolescent daughters enriched their relationships through a monthly reading club. With step-by-step guidelines, stories, anecdotes, extensive reading lists, sample themes, and related activities, the book offers practical instructions for starting a book club-instructions that are transferable beyond mother-daughter relationships." I have two questions for this group: 1. Has anyone read this book? 2. Has anyone facilitated book clubs for adult learners?
