One Book, One Sullivan has been working hard all summer to pick a great book for the community. Students have been reading one book a week and then meeting to discuss them. This discussion was particularly intense as we were eliminating some very well-loved books as you can see from the students' faces. To celebrate their hard work and the last meeting of the summer, we ate at TNT. Thanks to TNT for being such a great host!
