Come with ideas for these prompts in mind to share:
• Ross starts with a familiar sign, found in our everyday environment. What makes it a ‘hook’? What about his language is interesting, even delightful?
• Consider Gay’s practice of delight as sharing delight by reading your favorite entry to someone you love or recommend a delight.
Multiple copies of "The Book of Delights" will be available for checkout at the Walla Walla Public Library.
