Good Day Books Showcase



BOOKCLUB for Non-Native English Speakers

Gain confidence in your English reading and speaking skills by participating in our BOOKCLUB
for Non-Native English Speakers. Each month, you'll read a book selected by our staff and then,
on a Sunday afternoon, you'll discuss the book with other members of the club, a native-English
speaker from our staff, and another native-English speaker who regularly participates in the club's
discussions. The discussions are conducted primarily in English. Tea, coffee, and cookies will
be served during the discussions. Cost: ¥1000 per month plus purchase of the selected book
from Good Day Books.

On 14 September 2008 (Sunday), our members will discuss The Valleys of the Assassins by Freya Stark. (sold out)
