Plymouth District Library is joining libraries around the world in the first ever Big Library Read. Thousands of library patrons will be reading Michael Malone's The Four Corners of the Sky, from May 15 to June 1st. OverDrive will allow unlimited simultaneous use of this ebook to Plymouth patrons with valid library cards for this two week period.  This e-book may be downloaded and read in Kindle format, EPUB, and  OverDrive READ in your browser.

"The Four Corners of the Sky is the story of Annie Peregrine-Goode, a Navy pilot more at home in the sky than on earth. Having spent twenty years without a father, Annie is stunned when hers calls out of the blue to ask for a dying wish so absurd and mysterious, that no is the easiest of answers. It’s the reward that grabs her - the one thing she always wanted."
