At the North Bellmore Public Library
BEACH BAG BOOK CLUB
Thursday, June 18th 4:30pm
We have teamed up again with the Merrick, North Merrick
and Bellmore Library to bring back the Beach Bag Book Club. We will meet
three times this summer at the Merrick Library Wing on Merrick Avenue in
Merrick. At each event, hosted by young adult author Jen Calonita (Secrets
of My Hollywood Life series), teens will get to discuss a book
pre-selected for them with not only Ms. Calonita, but with the author
of the book itself. Our first book will be Sleepaway Girls by Jen
Calonita. Sign up at the Adult Reference Desk. Everyone
that signs up gets a beach bag to tote all of your favorite books around
in this summer.
