Is your goal to earn a little money by babysitting? Do you want to have answers for many of the what-ifs of taking care of younger siblings and children? This program is designed to give teens and tweens the tools needed to build confidence, find success, and earn some money along the way.

Join us for this special book discussion series geared toward middle school and favorite juvenile works. This book club meets each month to discuss popular authors and series. The Tween Book Club experience is social and a great way to motivate kids to read, get them talking about books they’ve read or listened to, and have them share ideas and perspectives. By sharing loved stories, tweens help motive others to explore works they might not have otherwise. Selections for each month are made by tweens who are willing to share their love of particular books and series. The Tween Book Club is open to interested book lovers in grades 6-12. Preference is given to Heggan Library cardholders. Register now.
