Virtual Book Club
Our virtual do-it-at-home book clubs for all ages continue! The best part? Everyone who participates gets to keep the book!
Pick up your free book and activity packet by visiting the library! Every book will come with a blank review form, a few questions you can think about, and a small craft or activity that ties into the book. All we ask is that you read the book: do as much or as little of the rest of it as you want. No matter how much you do, the book is yours!
The books are:
- Grades K-3: Dinosaurs (National Geographic Kids) by Kathy Weidner Zoehfeld. “In this exciting nonfiction reader, discover how dinosaur bones are dug up, assembled, and studied by scientists. Meet dinosaur superstars, get the facts on what these prehistoric beasts ate and how they survived, and even discover some “dinosaurs” still in existence today!”
- Grades 3-5: Shark Lady: True Adventures of Eugenie Clark by Ann McGovern. “From the first time Eugenie Clark went to an aquarium, she has loved marine life. She has explored the world under water and swum with sharks countless times. Explore Eugenie's fascination with life in the sea with her, beginning at age nine during weekly trips to New York City Aquarium.”
We have a post for each book on https://www.splyouth.org for anyone who wants to discuss the book or comment on any of the questions or activities. If you’d prefer not to go online, fill out the included review sheets and get them back to the library, and we can post your comments for you! Even better, everyone who either posts on our site or brings back anything included with the book – even if it’s just a picture of the craft you did – will also get a small prize at the library!
See the books for grades 5-8 and 9-12.
