Gearing Up for Book Clubs

I know summer isn't over yet, but we're prepped for Fall programs, including our book clubs. Kids in grades 1-3 can join our Kids' Book Club, while those in grades 4-6 can be in the Super Readers.

The Kids' Book Club is for kids reading at a 2nd to 3rd grade level. Each month the group will read a book nominated for the Beverly Cleary Children's Choice Award. At each meeting, kids talk about the books (including likes and dislikes) and enjoy some activities. Monthly meetings are on Tuesdays (usually the fourth of each month), 3:45-5 p.m.

The Super Readers will be reading some new and old classics this year. The group usually meets the 3rd Tuesday of every month from 4-5 p.m. Kids chat about the books and enjoy some activities.

Registration begins on Saturday, August 20 and is limited to the first 20 children for each group. Stop by the Children's Desk to register in person and pick up the first book. Stop by the Children's Desk to get some more information, including a list of dates and the books to be read.

Thanks to the Friends of the Tigard Public Library, book club participants will get to keep their books.
