We had a great book club after school Wednesday. The kids all read Frizzy by Claribel Ortega, and we had such great conversations! The kids had a lot of insights and personal connections to the book. The teen librarian from the Roselle Public Library came and brought a related craft and snacks. We are going to have our second meeting in October where we will be reading and discussing a spooky book!
