*When signing up you only have to sign up for your daughter. I will assume that the mother will also be coming.* Welcome to the 3rd-5th grade Mother Daughter book club! Every month Ms. Emily will pick a book suitable to a 3rd-5th grade reading level, which you can pick up at the front desk one month prior to the meeting. After we have all read the book Ms. Emily will lead a discussion about the book and we will do a craft inspired by the story. This month's pick is Mihi Ever After by Tae Keller
