The Girlfriends Read Book Club at the Neenah Public Library will meet on Thursday, March 1 at 4:00 p.m. Girlfriends Read features books with strong girl characters, written for ages nine and up but with broad appeal. Meetings include lively discussion, book-related activities, and snacks. Participants are welcome to attend solo or with a friend or family member.
Join us in reading Emma-Jean Lazarus Fell Out of a Tree by Lauren Tarshis. Follow Emma-Jean as she transitions from being an extraordinary observer of her middle-school world into a helpful, thoughtful, problem-solver. With inspiration from the way her father lead his life, Emma-Jean is confident she can logically solve problems for her classmates Colleen and Will and her friend Vikram, whether they want her help or not. Along the way, Emma-Jean learns to connect with the people in her world in ways that she could not when she was just an observer. She discovers how to follow her heart.
