Join us for a monthly book discussion just for families that are homeschooling!
This year we have selected a wide variety of books that mirror our world. Families are invited to read the book of the month (together or independently), then come to the Library for a discussion and related activities.
This event and books are geared for school-age kids or middle-grade reading level, but all ages are welcome to attend.
