@wclslibraries Exec. Dir. Christine Perkins trekked 100-plus miles along the #WonderlandTrail@MountRainierNPS. Michael Christie's book GREENWOOD was on her mind during the hike. "Trees were here before us. Trees sustain us. Trees will be here after us." she said.
Congratulations to the winners and finalists of the Washington State Book Awards.
