Children ages 3 to 14 are invited to a new offering this summer, Lunch with the Librarians! The book club meets weekly on Tuesdays at 12 noon, starting July 21st. All books connect with Unitarian Universalist values and principles, and there are two sections based on reading level – one focusing on picture books, and one on chapter books. Led by children’s librarians Michelle Touchet and Laura Trudeau.
