How to Write a Story

Written by Kate Messner and illustrated by Mark Siegel

Saturday, September 19 at 11 a.m.

Kids ages 8-12 are invited to join us on Zoom as we read and talk about the book How to Write a Story.

Accomplished storytellers Kate Messner and Mark Siegel playfully describe the process of becoming a writer in this fun title which guides young storytellers through the joys and challenges of the writing process.

After reading the book we'll work as a group to come up with our own story. It is preferable if children read the story before the discussion but not required. E-book copies of this title can be checked out using your library card at hoopladigital.com. If you are unable to download a copy of the book, please contact us for other options.

Registration is required. Once you register, instructions and a Zoom link will be emailed to you. For more information or to register call (609) 345-2269 x.3050 or click here.

The Next President: the Unexpected Beginnings and Unwritten Future of America's Presidents

Written by Kate Messner and illustrated by Adam Rex

Saturday, October 17 at 11 a.m.

Kids ages 8-12 are invited to join us on Zoom as we read and talk about the book The Next President.

"Who will be the next president? Could it be you? When George Washington became the first president of the United States, there were nine future presidents already alive in America, doing things like practicing law or studying medicine.

And right now -- today -- there are at least 10 future presidents alive in America. They could be playing basketball, like Barack Obama, or helping in the garden, like Dwight D. Eisenhower. They could be solving math problems or reading books. They could be making art-or already making change."

It is preferable if children read the story before the discussion but not required. E-book copies of this title can be checked out using your library card at hoopladigital.com. If you are unable to download a copy of the book, please contact us for other options.

Registration is required. Once you register, instructions and a Zoom link will be emailed to you. For more information or to register call (609) 345-2269 x.3050 or click here.
