Book Nook: Dance of the Trustees, by Dylan Taylor-Lehman

Dylan Taylor-Lehman moved to our area and became a reporter for the Yellow Springs News. His experiences as a journalist provided him with some insights into life in this unusual small town. Ohio is a state that has a form of government by townships. Dylan was sent to cover a meeting of the Miami Township Board of Trustees. Yellow Springs is located in Miami Township. These meetings are usually sleepy affairs but in this instance there was a contentious issue being discussed and that particular meeting provided this young reporter with some observations that eventually sprouted into this book.

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public Library,  Clark County Public LibraryDayton Metro Library, and Wright Memorial Public Library.
