Fantastic Books and Where To Find them - A Tween Book Club (September)
Tweens of Cochrane! Join us twice a month for a book club for kids aged 9-12!
Every month we will be reading an engaging or thought-provoking book, and meeting twice a month to engage in discussion and participate in activities.
Books will be provided for the participants and each child will be able to pick up their copy at the front desk before the first session so they can start reading before the book club starts.
This registration is for September ONLY!
Registration opens at 10:00 am on Friday, August 30.
The book we are reading this month is:
Plain Jane and the Mermaid by Vera Brosgol - a graphic novel!
Plot summary:
Jane is incredibly plain. Everyone says so: her parents, the villagers, and her horrible cousin who kicks her out of her own house. Determined to get some semblance of independence, Jane prepares to propose to the princely Peter, who might just say yes to get away from his father. It’s a good plan!
Or it would’ve been, if he wasn’t kidnapped by a mermaid.
With her last shot at happiness lost in the deep blue sea, Jane must venture to the underwater world to rescue her maybe-fiancé. But the depths of the ocean hold beautiful mysteries and dangerous creatures. What good can a plain Jane do?
Event dates
- Every 2 weeks on Thursday ends on September 26, 2024, 4:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
