A poster from the iRead program, illustrated by Sarah Ferone. A collage of plants, books, animals, and people is drawn in soft organic lines, and colored with cool toned greens, yellows, purples, and blues. Text reads: "Planta una Semilla, Lee; Plant a Seed, Read." In the image: a yellow book serves as a tent for a pig with a man raking nearby; a cow stands on a pink book with a woman sitting nearby and reading; a man carries a basket of plants past a large book; a woman rides a tractor past an open book where a large tomato plant sprouts; a woman using an open book as a tent reads near a chicken; a woman in a wheelchair wearing a hijab is feeding the chickens near an open book sprouting strawberries and squash blossoms.

Janet Parnes as Deborah Sampson

An Adult Summer Reading event open to all.
Thursday, July 30, at 6:30 PM

Click here to register.

Janet Parnes as Deborah Sampson. An Adult Summer Reading event. Thursday, July 30, at 6:30 PM. Discover “the story behind the story” of the only woman known to have disguised herself as a man and serve in the Continental Army undetected. Raised as an indentured servant in Middleborough, mistress-of-disguise Deborah Sampson, (aka Samson) dreamed of serving in the Continental Army. She persisted in developing a plan that made this dream a reality. Deborah’s story dispels many of the myths that circulate about her and places her in relief against a backdrop of traditional colonial culture. Peppered with props and surprises, this performance reveals the story behind this famous, principled deception and the character of the quiet rebel who pulled it off. Registration is required. Visit our Events Page. "Plant a Seed, Read" Statewide Summer Reading Program is sponsored by the Blackstone Cultural Council, the Friends of the Blackstone Public Library and the library's LIG/MEG account, as authorized by the Board of Library Trustees. "Plant a Seed, Read" is rooted in the concept of farm to table. A farm grows food that nourishes our bodies; a library grows ideas that nourish our minds. Both food and stories connect us to our family, culture, economy, and ecology. "iRead 2026: Plant a Seed, Read," will provide a context for exploring culture, history, science, health, and human connection. Flyer includes an image of Janet Parnes dressed in the uniform of a Continental Army soldier.
