À propos

Bob McDonald, host of CBC Radio’s Quirks and Quarks, has devoted a decades-long career to turning our attention away from everyday perspectives and outward to the vast, intricate wonders of our planet and universe. Now, in his revealing and captivating memoir, Just Say Yes, McDonald looks within, offering an intimate view of the path that brought him from a blue-collar background to his long-standing role as Canada’s foremost explainer of all things scientific.

A Different Drummer Books will be on site with books for sale.

This Culture Days event is presented in partnership with Douglas & McIntyre and A Different Drummer Books.

The Library belongs to everyone in the community and is free to join if you live, work, or go to school in Burlington.
