Sharing quality time with each other through reading provides the opportunity for parents to develop a true bond with their children by sharing ideas about the books’ contents and messages, while providing a safe environment for children to share thoughts, fears, or problems. They also have the opportunity to hear ideas and opinions of their peers.

Charlotte’s Web by E. B. White
September 14th, 2023 at 7 PM

Wilbur the pig, born the runt of the litter, is doomed until eight-year-old Fern stands up for him and insists that he shouldn’t be killed. Fern and Wilbur are inseparable until Wilbur is too big to live in their home. He goes to live in Fern’s uncle’s barn where she can visit him. Wilbur befriends the other animals in the barn, and learns a lot from the comical group of animals that teach him the ways of life. His most cherished friend is Charlotte the spider, who quickly develops a strong bond with Wilbur. Their friendship, and Charlotte’s devotion to Wilbur, will save his life.

Nim’s Island by Wendy Orr
Thursday, April 11th, 2024 at 7 pm

Nim lives on an island in the middle of the wide blue sea with her father, Jack, a marine iguana called Fred, a sea lion called Selkie, a turtle called Chica and a satellite dish for her e-mail. No one else in the world lives quite like Nim, and she wouldn’t swap places with anyone. But when Jack disappears in his sailing boat, and disaster threatens her home, Nim must be braver than she’s ever been before. And she needs help from her friends, old and new.
