Event Details
Patrons AGES 9 and up are invited to join us at the library for a club just for kids. This is NOT a Book Club is not your traditional book club. On the day of the program, we will hang out, talk about the book, create a themed craft, and play games. Once you have registered for our program, you can swing by the library to pick up your copy! New Policy: If you register for the children's book club and don't attend (without canceling your registration by the start of the program) twice in a row, you will not be able to register for the children's book club for two months.
Our March book is Lucky Scramble by Peter Raymundo
Six competitive cubers face off at the Speed Cubing national championships. Meet Tyler Goodman, Dirk, the 2 times national champ, Lizzy and Izzy Peterson, twins who crush cubing competitions, renowned eight-year-old prodigy Eli Newton, and Miles Oldman, the first American to solve the cube in under 40 seconds
As Lucky Scramble moves with lightning speed between the stories of these six contestants—plus that of CubeMania’s founder and CEO Victor Chen—puzzle cube devotees and fans of graphic novels alike won’t be able to resist racing through the pages until the very last cube has been solved.
"A fun, feel-good look into the world of competitive speed cubing that will surely inspire young readers to pick up a cube for themselves." —School Library Journal
"Lucky Scramble is a wonderful story featuring excellently executed prose and graphic storytelling. The use of light and color in the art supports the emotion of each panel. Raymundo's diverse cast of characters are relatable and will have readers cheering them on throughout the book." —Booklist
Parents are encouraged to read book reviews of each month’s chosen title in advance to determine if the book is one their child will enjoy.
