The PageTurners is a book club designed for readers between 8 and 11 years old. Readers will explore a range of genres, perspectives, and formats in middle grade literature. Common themes discussed in our book club titles include self-regulation, friendship, belonging, self-discovery, and conflict resolution. The goal of this book club is to help readers develop a love of reading in a fun and stress-free environment.
Be(Tween) Reads is a book club designed for readers between 11 and 13 years old. Similar to The PageTurners, readers will explore a range of genres, perspectives, and formats. Unlike The Pageturners, book club titles are drawn from both the middle grade and young adult sections. Common themes discussed in our book club titles include growing up, self discovery, changing friendships, puberty, first crushes/relationships, and identity development. The goal of this book club is to help readers maintain a love of reading, while developing a diverse and inclusive literary palate.
Both clubs read books with characters from a wide range of racial/ethnic backgrounds, cultural and religious perspectives, and LGBTQ+ identities.
