Our Upper Elementary Book Club for young readers (grades 3-5) meets on the second Wednesday of each month. In MAY, we will be reading/discussing The Turtle of Oman by Naomi Shihab Nye. 

This will be a hybrid event for UEBC, meaning participants can join us in person OR via Zoom on Wednesday, MAY 8, at 6:30 pm. In-person attendees will be hosted in the library's Program Room.

Meanwhile, we'll send a Zoom link to those who prefer to join virtually the day before our meeting.  (Note: Zoom participants will not be recorded but will be visible to in-person participants).

ABOUT THE BOOK:  Aref does not want to move to Michigan. He's sure the kids there won't like him. Also, he has everything he needs right where he is! But Sidi has another point of view. Sidi says Aref will go and come back. Just like a falcon or the turtles of Oman, he'll travel far and make his way home to Muscat.
