Too old for storytime? Join us for a book club!
We offer two monthly book clubs for children in grades 3 through 8. Registration is preferred but not required. Please call 617-376-2411 to ask about the upcoming meetings.

Each month a new theme or genre is selected. Children choose their own books from a prepared list and share their thoughts on the book they read and the theme or genre. In the summer specific titles are discussed.
June: Tuesday, 6/12, 7:00 p.m.
Theme: Superheroes
You don't have to read a comic book to find a story about superheroes. Try a novel about people with super powers or people who just wish they had super powers. Or go in the opposite direction and read about some super villains!
