April 22, 2013 by Karen Jensen, MLS

 My Disney parks addiction and fairy tales aside, I have a decidedly dark streak. So when Earth Day rolls around, even though we do a “Save the Earth” craft at my library, my brain rolls instead to the dystopias I know and read like crazy.  I got to thinking about which ones were based on […]
