Plants and Pages Book Club
It doesn't matter if you're on 'Team Plant-Collector' or 'Team Book Worm", the brand new Toledo Zoo botanical book club, Plants and Pages, is the place for you! Read the chosen botanical inspired books then meet at the zoo for a lively literary discussion with mimosa (or coffee) in hand. At the conclusion of the discussion, participants will enjoy highlighting the themes and topics of that meeting's book.
