Learning which takes place "after hours," in a club setting, is often an under supported component of children's education. After-school clubs built around books encourage independent, recreational reading, which in turn has a positive impact on the rest of a child's day. In this book, Shaia offers a year's worth of ready-to-implement programme ideas for librarians and educators. Her month-by-month calendar of themed clubs is conveniently divided by grade level (K-2, grades 3-4, grades 5-6) to allow club leaders and organisers to closely align activities and book selections to the ages of the club's participants. This handy book:

Offers programming on such themes as science, math, animals, mysteries, art, fairy tales, and more, all of which can be adapted for either a half-hour or forty-five-minute time slot

Details age-specific bibliographies and suggestions for read-aloud, music, and craft or game activities, with different ideas for each week in a month

Presents information on publicising the activity, community outreach, display ideas, set-up, supplies, management, and evaluation

With its inviting approach to book-based programming, Shaia's start-to-finish guide helps promote reading as a fun, engaging activity for kids.
