*Outside on the Library lawn, under the trees on the Swinburne Street side!
For July's Book Club, we will be reading Beyond the Bright Sea by Lauren Wolk.
| "Twelve-year-old Crow has lived her entire life on a tiny, isolated piece of the starkly beautiful Elizabeth Islands in Massachusetts. Abandoned and set adrift in a small boat when she was just hours old, Crow's only companions are Osh, the man who rescued and raised her, and Miss Maggie, their fierce and affectionate neighbor across the sandbar. Crow has always been curious about the world around her, but it isn't until the night a mysterious fire appears across the water that the unspoken question of her own history forms in her heart. Soon, an unstoppable chain of events is triggered, leading Crow down a path of discovery and danger." — Source of summary not specified |

*We will be meeting outside. In the case of inclement weather, Book Club will move indoors. Participants will be notified by noon, the day of, if the location changes.
We welcome new members every month!
At each session, the kids vote on a book to read together for the next month. Then, Ms. Colleen orders enough copies of that book through the Ocean State Libraries consortium. You pick up the book at the library (usually a week after the last book club). Books are never due before Book Club. Please reach out with any questions.
