A Film Celebrating Books!

Lynda Sexson, an expert on the written word, has created a visual presentation to demonstrate the impact of early American children's books.

Sexson's film, "My Book and Heart Shall Never Part," derived from a line from the "New England Primer," will premiere at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23, at the Emerson Cultural Center in Bozeman. Sexson's 55-minute film explores children's chapbooks, primers and toy books from the late-18th to mid-19th century as they relate to the world today.

The film is free and open to the public. However, tickets are necessary for the premiere and may be obtained at the AskUs Desk in the MSU Strand Union Building. For more information, click here or contact Lynda Sexson at 994-5200 or Michael Sexson at 994-5189.
