What do we do at Book Club?
- Book Club members meet-up for 45 mins to chat about that month's book. The idea is to finish the book before our meeting so that we can discuss it without being worried about spoilers. However it is not an issue if they don't finish they can still contribute and often it gives someone motivation to keep going to finish it.
- I lead the discussion and guide Book Clubbers - we want to encourage young readers to be thinkers, but are keen to ensure our meetings fun!
- We also play a couple of games connected to the book we have just read and/or other kids books
- Note If you have a reluctant reader no one is going to know if you read it together - they can still come and discuss their thoughts. Our main objective is to make reading fun.
What do we get with each ticket?
- 2 fantastic new titles to read before each meeting!
- Plus a spot at the Book Club table (numbers are limited)
How much are the tickets?
- $40
What Age do you recommend?
- The books chosen are recommended for age 8-10

About the Book:
Sam is a kind and thoughtful eleven-year-old, but he's not particularly great at anything. His sister, Ava, is a soccer star, and his best friend, Vihaan, is an award-winning artist. The one thing Sam is good at is knowing all about the extraordinary feats in the Big Book of Records.When Sam is set a class project about a moment he's proud of, he can't think of anything and takes inspiration from his favourite book. He knows he'll be proud of himself if he can break a world record!But breaking a world record isn't easy. And things get even harder when someone close to Sam needs his help and he must decide- will he be good? Or be the best?
