Reading gets better when you talk about it.

That’s the idea behind our new Book Club.

Starting Saturday, May 2, we are running a free book club at our Plainsboro location. Every other Saturday. 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. Two age groups. Real books. Real discussion.

This is not a class. It’s a conversation. Students come in having read the assigned chapters, share what stood out, ask questions, and hear what other kids thought. That’s how strong readers are built.

 


What We’re Reading

Grades 3–4: The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan

A mystery and adventure story pulled from Egyptian mythology. Siblings, gods, and a race against time. Read the first 3 chapters by May 2.

 

Grades 5–8: The Misfits: A Royal Conundrum by Lisa Yee

A group of kids at a school for misfits team up to solve a high-stakes mystery. Smart, funny, and full of twists. Read the first 14 chapters by May 2.
