Calling all young bookworms! We have a new monthly after-school book club for kids aged nine to twelve who love to read and talk about great stories.

Choose a book to fit the theme of the month, read it, and join us for a chat around the table as we dive into our stories and share our thoughts. Come away with recommendations from other readers your age and maybe some new friends! 

Fourth Tuesday of the Month from 24 March
3.45pm - 4.30pm
The View Room, Wollondilly Library

For ages 9-12.

Bookings are recommended and open one month before each session.

Attendees are asked to read a book fitting the theme of the month in their preferred format (print, audiobook or digital book). This could be a Library book, but doesn’t have to be. They might like to think about how they’d answer the discussion questions provided in the list attached.
