Join us for a Book Club for those in grades 4-6! The book for discussion in September is The Lion of Mars by Jennifer L. Holm.
Bell has spent his whole life–all eleven years of it–on Mars.

When a virus breaks out and the grown-ups all fall ill, Bell and the other children are the only ones who can help. It’s up to Bell to brave the unknown–to save not only his family but all of Mars. Maybe Bell isn’t just like any other kid after all…
