Library to Host Mother/Daughter Book Club

Girls ages 8 through 12 and the special women in their lives are invited to attend Tompkins County Public Library’s monthly Mother/Daughter Book Club.

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. 

Upcoming meeting dates and titles to be discussed are:

• ·         March 7—“The Ballad of Lucy Whipple” by Karen Cushman
• ·         April 11—“The Watsons Go to Birmingham—1963” by Christopher Paul Curtis
• ·         May 9—“Walk Two Moons” by Sharon Creech

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