Students in grades equivalent to 4th and 5th are invited to join us on the 4th Monday of the month for S.T.E.A.M. club. S.T.E.A.M. focuses on the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics to further kids' interests in the sciences and encourage curiosity.

The library's S.T.E.A.M. Book Club will read a fiction chapter book and meet once a month to discuss our readings, how they relate to S.T.E.A.M. themes, and participate in an activity. November's book is Winterhouse by Ben Guterson and the activity will be a "gingerbread" house with light circuits. 

"Orphan Elizabeth Somers’s malevolent aunt and uncle ship her off to the ominous Winterhouse Hotel, owned by the peculiar Norbridge Falls. Upon arrival, Elizabeth quickly discovers that Winterhouse has many charms―most notably its massive library. It’s not long before she locates a magical book of puzzles that will unlock a mystery involving Norbridge and his sinister family. But the deeper she delves into the hotel’s secrets, the more Elizabeth starts to realize that she is somehow connected to Winterhouse. As fate would have it, Elizabeth is the only person who can break the hotel’s curse and solve the mystery. But will it be at the cost of losing the people she has come to car for, and even Winterhouse itself?

Mystery, adventure, and beautiful writing combine in this exciting debut richly set in a hotel full of secrets."

Registration is required and books will be available for pick up at the Children's Desk starting October 28th.
