5th & 6th grade girls and their mothers, mentors and friends are invited to a lively discussion of "Tuesdays at the Castle" by Jessica Day George, a book-related activity and snacks!
Every Tuesday Castle Glower takes on a life of its own-magically inventing, moving, and even completely getting rid of some of its rooms. Good thing Princess Celie takes the time to map out these never-ending changes. Because when the castle is ambushed and Celie's parents and oldest brother go missing, it's up to Celie to protect their home and save their kingdom. A great new series that readers will devour!
Copies of books are available at the library. Registration is preferred but not required for this event. To learn more, please contact the library at 789-1555, x. 115 or tladika@skpl.org.
