Wouldn't it be great to have a book club where you could just enjoy books—without any homework? At Silent Book Club, there's no assigned reading, just reading in companionable silence!
Each Silent Book Club will start with a short intro, where everyone gets to share what they are reading. Then there's silent reading hour! No pressure, no homework questions, just quiet social time with other people who love to read.
Drop-in program.

Ages 6 - 12 years old (we will have crafts for younger siblings too).
Learn to speak Wookie (or Wookie sounds): make your own loyal Droid Cubecraft; test a saber in dual circle; complete a scavenger hunt; learn the planets in the Star Wars universe; fly your plane through the death star and knock down some Stormtroopers. For the younger ones: make a Chewbacca puppet and a yoda or lei bun headband. Origami Yoda awaits you! (yes, we have to say it: May the 4th be with you!).
Please register.
