More about the book: Being a teenager is no fairy tale . . . but that doesn't mean you can't find a little magic. A high schooler's journey to recover from burnout leads to a surprising romance with a twist from the bestselling author of The Magic Fish.
 

You can place a hold online but we'll also have some copies available at the circulation desk, and it's available digitally via Libby.

The Ferndale Library and Affirmations co-host a social club/book club for kids in grades 4-8, meeting on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 6:00 pm in the library's program room.

 

This is a social hour that includes a book discussion. Each month, attendees have the chance to read and then discuss a selected book at the Reading Rainbow.

 

Kids don't have to have finished (or even started) the book to attend the Reading Rainbow; the rest of the hour is free time dedicated to socializing/crafting/hanging out together.

 

Drop-ins are always welcome! 

 

You can pick up a copy of this month's book at the Ferndale Library or place a hold online. 

 

On Tues., March 24, we'll be discussing The Song of Us by Kate Fussner: This stunning debut and wholly original queer middle grade novel-in-verse retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice adds a new chorus to the songs of great love, perfect for fans of Other Words for Home and Ivy Aberdeen's Letter to the World.
