Book Club Adventures

We are reading ‘The City of Ember’ by Jeanne DuPrau. It’s a YA novel set in a dark city where everything is old and slowly breaking down. Two children, Lina and Doon, start to investigate the hidden areas and discover a great big secret….

We meet on Tuesdays from 4:30-5:30, and have a discussion about aspects of the book’s theme, the characters, and interesting plot points. To add to our literacy skills, we discuss unfamiliar vocabulary and read sections out loud to each other. The best part, according to the club members, is snack time! We have only started reading the first two chapters, so if you know someone in grade 3-8 who would enjoy reading along with us, please contact the school to register.

Happy reading!
