This year’s Salina Reads title is "Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law" by Mary Roach. Hailed as “America’s funniest science writer,” Roach explores the unpredictable world where humans and wildlife collide. From jaywalking moose to break-in-prone bears, she investigates curious real-life cases and reveals how science — rather than law — often offers the most insightful solutions to human-wildlife conflict.

Free copies of this year’s title will be available while supplies last.

No registration is required. All ages welcome!
