Please be advised that books selected for book club will be at a more advanced level than those "at grade level". Due to this fact, some books contain content and/or language for a more advanced reader. I would encourage you to look over the book list on the student pages if this is of concern to you.

Your child will be offered 2 choices at each book club meeting. I would like book club to be an ongoing committment, therefore, some months, students may find books may not be their favorite genre. I encourage students to try new books and also let them know we will not always like very book we read!

Please take note of the historical fiction choices for December. **Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry** takes place during the Civil Rights era. Language typical to the conflicts during that time does arise in the novel. This is a very well-written novel, but does address issues our country faced during the 1930s in the Deep South. This may create a dialogue with your child about our country's history and the prejudice that took place.
