Let's Celebrate a Book Together! Join me for a great discussion of Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein. Our book discussion will foster a love of books and lay the foundations for future literary analysis. Students will be encouraged to share their ideas, thoughts, and conclusions about various aspects of the book. We'll discuss topics such as plot elements, characters, themes, the author's style, and more. Each student will also be encouraged to bring their favorite quote to our discussion to share with the group. During our meeting, I will facilitate a roundtable discussion and make sure everyone has a chance to share their ideas. I'll guide the students as they express their own opinions and listen to the opinions of others. Learning to support your ideas from literature is the foundation of literary analysis, so our book club will give everyone the opportunity to practice in a comfortable atmosphere. I will ask everyone to share their favorite quote from the book at the end of each book club. Quotes can be silly or serious. Sharing a favorite quote is optional but encouraged. Don't forget about the fun stuff! A book club with me will always include an element of fun. Our time together with Mr. Lemoncello will include a fun game or activity.

Hi Friends! Let's Celebrate Book Together!
Hi, my name is Mary and I love all things books and book clubs. I have been organizing and leading book clubs in the homeschool community for 6 years and I can't wait to discuss books with you. My book clubs are designed to encourage and inspire students to think more deeply about what they read, to form and defend their opinions, and to engage others in conversations about books.
I believe that book clubs are a brilliant way to lay the foundation for literary analysis. Well-crafted discussions help us explore various literary and plot elements, the author's style, and book themes in a fun and relaxed environment. I know everyone is capable of sharing great insights and the questions in our book club will be designed to draw those insights out.
I am a graduate of Towson University with a BS in Elementary Education. I taught in the public school system (elementary and then middle school) for five years before staying home with my kids. We began homeschooling over 12 years ago and in that time, my own love of children's books and young adult literature was reignited. I spent two years as an employee at Brave Writer where I facilitated online book clubs and now I share my love of books online on my own website at Celebrate a Book.
I live in North Carolina with my husband, four kids, and our dog, Lafayette. Yes, the dog represents our family's absolute love for Hamilton: The Musical.
