Junior Book Club

A book club for school-aged kids! 

The Junior Book Club is a great way to introduce your children to books they might not have read otherwise, while connecting with other children and families to share your thoughts on what you're reading. 

How does it work? 

- Register early to receive a free copy of the book to keep. Call us at 403-887-2130 or email sylvan.library@prl.ab.ca to register for this free program.

- Read the book, do the activities that accompany the book, then meet at the library to discuss. (If we are meeting via Zoom, we will send out an email with the Zoom link for participants to join and discuss their progress in the book and share their thoughts so far.)

Our fall selection is Brackenbeast by Kate Alice Marshall. The first 15 participants to sign up will receive a free copy of the book to keep. Loot kits will be available for pick-up starting September 6th. Registration is now open for this event.

Meet to discuss this book September 16th, October 7th, with a wrap-up party on October 21.
