The Iowa Library Association and the Iowa Center for the Book announce The Rope Walk by Carrie Brown as the All Iowa Reads selection for 2009. In The Rope Walk a ten-year-old girl in Grange, Vermont broadens her horizons while confronting the harsher reality presented by her new friendship with Theo, a young boy of mixed-race, and Kenneth Fitzgerald, an artist dying of AIDS.
The Library has a set of books available for book clubs and discussion groups.
