Library to Host Mother/Daughter Book Club

Girls in grades five through eight and the special women in their lives are invited to attend Tompkins County Public Library’s monthly Mother/Daughter Book Club.

Beginning September 28, the Mother/Daughter Book Club will meet once a month from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in the Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

Facilitated by author and educator Emily Rhoads Johnson, the Club provides a wonderful opportunity for participants to learn about themselves and others by discussing literature in a welcoming, judgment-free environment. 

Fall meeting dates and titles to be discussed are:

·         September 28—“Because of Winn-Dixie” by Kate DiCamillo
·         October 26—“Wonder” by R.J. Palacio
·         November 23—“Inside Out and Back Again” by Thanhha Lai
·         December 21—“Homecoming” by Cynthia Voigt

Participants may attend one or all of the meetings.  Registration is not required, and refreshments will be served.

For more information, contact the Youth Services Department at (607) 272-4557 extension 275.
