Readmont, Piedmont’s community read project, now in its fourth year! All Piedmonters are encouraged to read Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, a memoir of the author’s young life in Iran during the 1979 revolution, told in graphic novel (comic book style) format.
A limited number of copies will be available for checkout at each school library. Also, A Great Good Place for Books in Montclair is offering a 20% discount on this title. Book discussions will be scheduled in early February. We hope this common reading experience will forge positive connections among students, staff, parents and community members as well as encourage reading as a medium of collaboration.
