Join us on Tuesday, May 30th at 6 p.m. for Bookworms: A Danvers Book Club. Anyone is welcome to join, so if you love reading, but you’re a little shy, bring a friend along! This month, we will be meeting to discuss
Local Woman Missing by Mary Kubica.
A brief synopsis of Local Woman Missing: “Shelby Tebow is the first to go missing. Not long after, Meredith Dickey and her six-year-old daughter, Delilah, vanish just blocks away from where Shelby was last seen, striking fear into their once-peaceful community. Are these incidents connected? After an elusive search that yields more questions than answers, the case eventually goes cold. Now, eleven years later, Delilah shockingly returns. Everyone wants to know what happened to her, but no one is prepared for what they'll find."

If you find that this month's pick isn't to your taste, come to the meeting anyway so you can have input on next month's book! We will vary our genres and decide as a group what we will read.
Our Children's Story & Craft will be back after our 2023 Summer Reading Program!
We offer a story & craft every month during our local school year.
Anyone is welcome to join, although it is geared toward younger children.

Welcome to 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Club! This free program encourages you to read 1,000 books with your child before they enter school—a goal experts say children need to help them learn to read for themselves.
One of the best ways to encourage learning is to spend time sharing books every day. Reading together helps develop important pre-reading skills that provide a solid reading foundation—a key to school and learning success. Plus, sharing stories together is fun!
Here are the easy steps for participation:
1. Read together.
2. Mark the dot on your child’s log. If you read a book more than once, you can record it each time. Books read at our library Story Time, daycare, or others also count.
3. When you finish 100 books, give your sheet to the librarian and
· Receive a sticker
· Receive a book
4. Repeat steps 1—3 and receive a different sticker and book at each level.
5. After finishing 1,000 books, your child
· Receives a sticker and a book
· Receives a special prize
This club has no end date except your child’s going to school, so don’t feel rushed—just enjoy the experience! Take every chance you have to read with your children, talk about stories, say nursery rhymes, sing songs, and attend library programs. By reading just three stories a day you and your child will have read over 1,000 books in one year. You will also have shared many special moments along the way.
The library is a fun place featuring books to check out, DVDs, free programs, and great suggestions for what to read. Stop in often and talk to our friendly staff—we are here to help.
Happy Reading!
