Book Your Trip - Travel Reads from NPR

For this week’s blog post, I am borrowing from National Public Radio’s fun new summer book list, which is all about travel - not the destination, necessarily, but rather, they’re highlighting books that focus on and celebrate the journey to those destinations. I’ve picked out a few fun titles on that list that we have at Eager Free PL to highlight here.
