2002 National Book Festival
Laura Bush kicks off the National Book Festival Gala Friday, October 11, 2002 at the Library of Congress. Said Mrs. Bush, "Books are not just for reading - they are for sharing, and talking about. A good book draws us back again - we want to remember the scenes and revisit the characters. Finishing a book is like saying good-bye to an old friend; we need support groups for that. That's why book clubs were invented."
