Multicultural Book Group meeting coming up

Group to discuss “Whistling Past the Graveyard.”

The Multicultural Book Group will discuss its latest book, “Whistling Past the Graveyard,” by Susan Crandall this month. The meeting is at 7 p.m. Feb. 14 at the 320th Federal Way Library.

Fleeing her strict grandmother’s Mississippi home in 1963, 9-year-old Starla Claudelle becomes the unlikely companion to an African-American woman at whose side she learns some harsh lessons about period segregation and family.

Everyone is welcome to attend.
