For our August meeting, we will be reading Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo  Learn more about this title here.  Copies may be borrowed from KDLA by visiting Central City Public Library and presenting a valid library card.

Middle Grade Book Club is a great way for youth to increase their interest in reading, to "unplug", to socialize, & to develop reading skills (comprehension, endurance, & speed).
