PLEASE NOTE: you must fill out a separate form for each child participating in this event. Brown Bag Book Club is back for the summer! Each month, children in grades 3–6 will read a book and enjoy fun activities along with a sweet treat. Participants may bring a “brown bag” lunch if they choose; beverages will be provided. For August, we will be reading Rooftoppers by Katherine Rundell. Participants can pick up their book from the 2nd floor Ask Here desk after signing up.
Quick Book Description: Sophie may have survived a shipwreck as a baby, but her life really began when an eccentric but loving bachelor, Charles, brought her home. Charles uses toast as a bookmark and welcomes Sophie writing on the walls. When Child Protective Services threatens to remove Sophie to an orphanage, she and Charles flee to Paris to search for the one thing that might save her: her long-lost mother. There, Sophie meets a group of children who live under the radar, atop the rooftops in Paris—and she learns that when you never ignore a possible, sometimes the impossible comes true.
