Celebrate Reading with Sarah Palin in Houston April 22

*
Sarah Palin will comment on her life and read from her memoir Going Rogue as part of the program for the 2010 Celebration of Reading event, sponsored by the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy, April 22 at Houston's Hobby Center for the Performing Arts.

The 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate will join authors A.J. Jacobs (The Year of Living Biblically), Mary Karr (The Liar's Club), Greg Kincaid (A Dog Named Christmas) and Kathryn Stockett (The Help). Celebration of Reading regularly packs the theaters and brings in about $2 million a year to former First Lady Barbara Bush's foundation.

Tickets start at $150 per person and range up to $5,000 to reserve a table for eight. Dial 713-942-1209 or email ceickenroht@empowerevents.com for ticket information. The Celebration of Reading webpage is here, and the foundation's home page is here. The PDF flyer for the event is here.
