Thousands of library patrons around the world are participating in the first ever Big Library Read of an eBook, and you are invited to join the fun. The Four Corners of the Sky is master storyteller Michael Malone's novel of love, secrets, and mysterious bonds of families. Malone brings characters to life as only he can, exploring the questions that defy easy answers: Is love a choice or a calling? Why do the ties of family bind so tightly? And is forgiveness a gift to others... or a gift we give ourselves?

Reading a book with a child – whether it’s your child, grand-child, niece, nephew or neighbor – is a wonderful way to spend time together. Reading to your child is a fun way to share thoughts and learn new things. It is also a free activity that you can do every day.
