COVER TO COVER: A MOTHER-DAUGHTER BOOK CLUB
Monday, July 14@ 6:45 PM
“My Mother the Cheerleader” by Robert Sharenow
"My mother was a Cheerleader, but not the type of cheerleader you're probably thinking of. She didn't become a Cheerleader until she was thirty-six years old. Sometimes her cheers came out so full of foul language that the newspapers couldn't even print the words."

Want to add a whole new aspect to your mother/daughter relationship? Join our new book club and share your thoughts over some great books. Lively discussion & refreshments. Group meets on the first Monday of each month at 6:45 PM. Open to grades 6-8 with one parent (or more). Copies of the book are available NOW at the circulation desk!
