Got Cereal? Get ready for some stories that really Snap! Crackle! Pop!
Toledo: Got Cereal? That’s what youth will be asking when they check out Sanger Branch Library’s newest book club, The Serial Readers, Cereal Eaters Book Club! Part 2 – open to school-age youth in the 4th, 5th and 6th grades.
Bring your favorite cereal bowl to Sanger Branch, 3030 W. Central Ave., from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. every Tuesday beginning August 20 through November 19, 2009. Why? Because there will be plenty of cereal to eat and interesting books read aloud. This is an open and FREE event!
Join Children’s librarians, Ms. Cristin and Mr. Tim, as they read aloud a different and magically delicious book each month to 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students. All books selected are age appropriate and are the first of five different series young participants can continue on their own.
Books include: The Secret Zoo, by Bryan Chick; George’s Secret Key to the Universe, by Stephen W. Hawking, Lucy Hawking and Garry Parons; The Akhenaten Adventure by P.B. Kerr; Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy and Tom Percival; & Softwire: Virus on Orbis 1 by PJ Haarsma.
In addition to cereal, the library branch has other breakfast treats as well. Ask one of its “coo-coo for cocoa puffs” librarians for details.
Studies have demonstrated that reading aloud to youth can enhance academic achievement. Sign up your youngster today! And don’t forget to bring your cereal bowl! For more details and to sign up, call 419.259.5370.
