Does your learner love stories, but struggle to find books that keep them hooked? Or perhaps they’re looking for a place to share their reading adventures with others? Research shows that kids read more (and better) when they’re excited about the books they’re reading. That’s where Book Bonanza comes in!

Our weekly book club is designed to ignite your child’s passion for reading while developing their critical thinking and communication skills. We’ll explore a variety of captivating stories hand-selected for learners ages 9-12 (4th, 5th, and 6th grades) that will spark curiosity, creativity, and a love of books. Each session begins with an inspiring quote from the week’s book, setting the tone for lively discussions where your child will dive deep into characters, themes, and plot twists.

What we’ll be reading this session:

November 30th: Harry Potter & The Chamber of Secrets, by JK Rowling
December 7th: Bridge to Terabithia, by Katherine Paterson 
December 14th: Sounder, by William H. Armstrong
December 21st: The Giver, by Lois Lowry
