Program Description
About this event:
Kids ages 9-13 are welcome to join this bi-monthly, in person book club that focuses on award winning books and authors! In August we will be reading From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg. Each participant will receive a copy of the selected award winning book to keep and read in advance of our meeting. We will then meet in our Thaler/Howell Programming room for discussion and a related activity! Registration is required as space is limited. Register online and reserve a copy of the book to borrow. You will be notified when your copy is available to pick up by curbside or in lobby pickup.
When suburban Claudia Kincaid decides to run away, she knows she doesn’t just want to run from somewhere, she wants to run to somewhere — to a place that is comfortable, beautiful, and, preferably, elegant. She chooses the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Knowing her younger brother Jamie has money and thus can help her with a serious cash-flow problem, she invites him along. ~ from the Publisher
