Third and Fourth Graders, along with a favorite adult, are invited to join Beebe Library's First Thursday Book Club.

Share the love of reading in your family! We will be reading some of the very best middle grade books and explore beyond the plot to seek the themes, the authors' secret purpose, and what makes each book special. Along with the discussion, there will be a craft or activity and a snack to take home that goes along with each month's book.

January's Book: Mighty Miss Malone, by Christopher Paul Curtis.  Deza Malone is the smartest girl in her class and has a loving family whose motto is "We are on a journey to place called wonderful." When her parents lose their job, the family separates as her father and brother move away to find work. Set during the Great Depression, one girl sets out to bring her family together and start to rebuild their life.

This program will be inside and so all attendees must be masked.
