Space is limited. If you did not attend last month’s book club meeting, registration is required. Please register using your child’s name. If spots are available, they open after the previous month's meeting has ended.

Once registered, you will need to pick up a free book at the Northwest Branch Library and start reading. Don't forget to bring the book with you to our book club meeting. If you have any questions, you can email childrenslibrarian@burbankca.gov.

We will be reading Ravenfall by Kalyn Josephson. Thirteen-year-old Anna Ballinkay has never been normal. Her family uses their psychic abilities to help run the Ravenfall Inn, a magical B&B between the human world and the Otherworld. But it’s hard to contribute when your only power is foreseeing death. So when fourteen-year-old Colin Pierce arrives at Ravenfall searching for his missing older brother, Anna jumps at the chance to help. But the mysteries tied to Colin go much deeper than either of them expects… Now the supernatural creature straight out of Celtic mythology, one with eerie connections to Colin’s family, is coming after them. If Anna and Colin can’t stop the creature, it would spell destruction for Ravenfall and the world as they know it.

A book club for kids is one of the best ways to combine learning and fun. Early readers book clubs support the emerging literacy of kids who have graduated from story time and are being introduced to more formal “learn-to-read” techniques in school. This program will introduce kids to awesome books, get them excited about books and reading, and help them develop social skills through interacting with their peers.
