November Book Groups!

Participating in book groups provides children with opportunities to interact and engage with their peers. They learn how to communicate effectively, cooperate, and collaborate with others. Through group activities, children develop essential social skills such as sharing, taking turns, and resolving conflicts.

We offer book groups for Kindergarteners, 1st graders, 2nd graders, 3rd & 4th graders, and 5th grade & up. Click the registration link to learn more about the book choice, date & time. All books can be picked up at the Circulation Desk. It is recommended the book is read before attending the program.
