Young Book Lovers Club

Calling all book lovers aged 9-13...

The Children's Bookshop is starting a book club for tweens on 7th June. Meeting on the first Friday of every month 4-5pm, the group will discuss a different genre each time (the kids choose their own books to discuss). There will be games, quizzes and prizes, plus we'll even lay on hot chocolate in the winter months. The club members will get a $20 shop voucher for every 5 meetings they attend. A great way of getting everyone to read outside his or her beloved genres...
