Program Description

Description

Do you love talking about books, eating snacks, and doing fun projects? Join us for a special book club just for students in grades 3-5! Participants will get a copy of this month's book to keep. At the first meeting we will start the book and do a themed craft or activity. Participants will be expected to finish the book on their own between meetings. At the second meeting we will discuss the book and do another themed craft or activity. Snacks will be provided! Registration is for both sessions.

October: Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein

Our first book club selection is a fun-filled, lightning-fast tale packed with puzzles and book references. Luigi has a knack for games and puzzles. But sometimes it feels like the cards are stacked against him. Until a carnival arrives in town and Luigi gets the chance of a lifetime—the opportunity to work for the world-famous Professor Marvelmous, a dazzling, banana-hat-wearing barker who puts the show in showman! When the carnival closes, Professor Marvelmous leaves behind a mysterious puzzle box along with a clue. A clue that will lead Luigi and his friends on a fantastical treasure hunt to a prize beyond anything they could imagine—if they can find it! Can Luigi crack the codes and unlock the box’s secrets? Will there be puzzles? Of course! Balloons? You bet! Will it be fun? Hello! It’s a Lemon-cello! BONUS! Can you solve the hidden puzzle inside?!

Registration opens on Thursday, September 25 at 10 am and closes the day of the program.
