Read a selected book and then share your thoughts and feelings with each other through good old-fashioned mail!  Register and pick up a copy of the book and "pen pal envelope" at the Youth Desk.  Meet at Shattuck Park to discuss book, snack, and exchange pen pal envelopes once a month.  Monday, June 21, 10:00-11:00 a.m. is our meeting date to discuss One Time by Sharon Creech.
