Book club will meet twice during the month of January. We will chat about the book, do some fun activities, and enjoy a delicious treat! Participants can bring a “brown bag” meal and drinks will be provided. We will be reading Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett. Participants in grades 4–6 can pick up their book from the 2nd floor Ask Here desk after signing up at lclsonline.org/calendar/.
Please note: you must sign up for each session of Brown Bag Book Club separately.
Quick book description: When a book of unexplainable occurrences brings Petra and Calder together, strange things start to happen: seemingly unrelated events connect, an eccentric older woman seeks their company, and an invaluable Vermeer painting disappears. Before they know it, the two find themselves at the center of an international art scandal where no one is spared from suspicion. Petra and Calder are drawn clue by clue into a mysterious labyrinth; can they decipher a crime that has stumped even the FBI?
