BookBuffet Partners With the Boston Television Network Branch, WGBH of the PBS
WGBH in Boston is the public television network of high renown. They're the folks that bring us all incredible programing series Masterpiece Theatre. This January-May 2009 WGBH is airing a new series of made-for-TV films adaptations of four works of the classic novelist Charles Dickens. The WGBH educational outreach department contacted BookBuffet as part of their Book & Film Club. BookBuffet members will be receiving a compliment of resource information to compliment the series. In addition, BookBuffet Founder Paula Shackleton will be doing a podcast series with the popular television station's creative staff.
"It's a fabulous opportunity for BookBuffet members who are familiar with our "books to film" feature articles to get a head-start on reading or re-reading the most classic of all British authors - Dickens."
