Washington Reads…with the Mariners!
Posted by wastatelib on March 28, 2008
At the event last week, Washington State Librarian Jan Walsh showed off the latest Washington Reads poster. This time we’re extremely lucky to feature Mariners starting pitcher and author/poet Miguel Batista! Miguel is the author of a recent book of poetry entitled “Sentimentos en Blanco y Negro,” as well as thriller called “The Avenger of Blood.” In the poster, Miguel poses with his book of poetry and encourages kids around Washington to READ! Jan Walsh will be present on Monday, March 31 for Mariners’ Opening Day at Safeco Field to do an official unveiling of the poster during the pre-game festivities. Thanks, Miguel, for encouraging fans all over Washington State to READ!
Update: The link to order copies of the Miguel Batista poster can be found here. Please note that posters can ONLY be sent to Washington State residents.
