Makeda Makes a Home for Subway is our Bookworm Barbs book for August. Bookworm Barbs is our book club for rising K-2 students. We read shorter chapter books with lots of pictures. Older first and second grade students may be able to read on their own, but the books also make a nice family read aloud, too. 

Bookworm Barbs is a book party!  Not only will we talk about the book, we'll enjoy a snack and do a craft, too.  

Pick up a copy of the book at the Children’s Department Desk while supplies last. Please register, as space is limited.

For additional information or help with registration, please contact Laura at lauraw@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 3350.
