LOVELL — The Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library is holding a Pizza and Book Party from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, July 21, featuring a build-your-own pizza and book review party.
The event is suitable for children age 10 and older and their families. A portable wood-fired clay oven from Fly Away Farm will be available to bake pizzas, and dessert and book discussion will follow.
Discussion will center on “The Island of Beyond,” one of the finalists for the 2017 Maine Literary Award. Author Elizabeth Atkinson will be available to talk about the local legend that inspired the novel, which is set on an island in a Maine lake.
Copies of “The Island of Beyond” are available to check out at the library.
Those planning to attend are asked to sign up at the library so there is enough pizza available for all attendees.
