This month we will be reading "not exactly a novel, not quite a picture book, not really a graphic novel, or a flip book or a movie, but a combination of all these things." Join us as we dive into the exciting Invention of Hugo Cabret  by Brian Selznick.

Steps to Book Club Fun:
1)    Pick up a copy of The Invention of Hugo Cabret at  Woodridge Library.
2)    Read the book* at home, at school, at the library...wherever!
3)    Come to the book club meeting for discussion, activities and PIZZA!
4)    Did we mention PIZZA!??!
 
*If you've already read the book, please re-read it before the book club meeting, and don't forget to bring the book with you.
