'Twelve Dogs of Christmas' topic of discussion at Derby Public Library

DERBY - All are invited to Derby Public Library's monthly Lunchtime Book Discussion at 12:30 p.m. Dec. 4. 
The featured book will be “The Twelve Dogs of Christmas” by David Rosenfelt, who is known for his legal thrillers filled with wry humor. 

“The Twelve Dogs of Christmas” is heartwarming and ingeniously plotted.
Defense lawyer Andy Carpenter, a wisecracking, dog-loving attorney usually tries to avoid taking on new cases at all costs. But Carpenter loves dogs, so he’s eager to help a woman who’s known as “Pups” because she takes care of abandoned puppies. Pups’ problem?
A newcomer to her neighborhood has complained to the local zoning board that she has more dogs than are allowed per household.

Carpenter delivers his characteristically hilarious courtroom performance.

Multiple copies of the book will be available at the circulation desk. The Library is at 313 Elizabeth St.

Drop-ins are welcome; no registration required. For information call 203-736-1482.
