Welcome to Aesop’s Kids Reading Club for ages 8 and older!
Our goal is to bring kids together who love books and reading. Every month we choose one book to read, discuss and do some other fun related activities. The selections are intended to be appealing to a wide audience. If you have recommendations, we would love to hear them.
 
We generally meet one Sunday afternoon each month.

Upcoming Discussions

Looking for the perfect way to get your kids excited about reading this summer? Join Aesop's Kids Reading Club for our Summer Reading Kickoff party featuring a BAKING COMPETITION with guest judge Gaetano! Read A Day at the Beach by Gary D. Schmidt and create the perfect treat (savory or sweet) to share at the beach.

Think summer flavors, something sturdy and easy to pack and of course something that will withstand the heat. Make sure your treat is easy to share so the judges and fellow participants can sample. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!  All are welcome to participate. This is a drop-off event but parents are welcome to stay if they would like.

FREE and open to the community.  Please add one to cart for each person attending the in person discussion. This is a drop-off event although parents are welcome to stay if they want!
