About this event

Calling all 4th, 5th, and 6th graders! Ever read a book and wonder how it would look on the big screen? Join us for R.W.D: Read, Watch, Discuss, the book club where we read a great story, hang out to watch the movie adaptation together, and decide once and for all: was the book really better? We will read and watch The Witches by Roald Dahl. The first ten children who sign up for the book club will receive a copy of the book to keep and add to their home library. Copies of the book for registered attendees can be picked up at the Children's Desk on the 3rd floor, starting October 1st.. The movie is rated PG for scary images and mild language. Watch the movie trailer here. Grades 4-6
