Laser Show

Niagara Falls

The adult book club, One Book, One Hour, is reading the memoir “Too Close to the Falls” by Catherine Gildiner, now a successful psychologist that began having adventures as a hyperactive 4 year old. She was a delivery sidekick out of her father’s pharmacy, and discovered the darker side of human existence at an early age. The book is told with a humorous edge that motivates the reader to follow Gildiner onto her next discovery. The book club meets the second Wednesday of the month to discuss the book. Copies are available through the library at (574) 457-3022.
