An Adult Book Discussion of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

LITCHFIELD, Conn. - Feb. 23, 2016 - PRLog -- Join us for a book discussion for adults of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and participate in the community conversation of this classic book! Lisa Shaia, Children’s Librarian, and Sarah McHugh, Center School Language Arts Coordinator, will lead the discussion.

OWL has partnered with the Litchfield Center School to expand their Book Club Program to the community. Regardless of whether you have a child in school, we hope you will join us because as cliché as it may sound, we think there is truth in the African proverb that, “It takes a village to raise a child.”

Many older adults and young people find it difficult or intimidating to talk to one another, especially if they are not in their immediate family. Reading a common book opens the door to conversation.

This marks the third year of the Litchfield Center School Book Club. The program invites all K through Grade 3 students to read (or listen) to the same book. All students receive a free copy of the book. OWL has joined with the school to encourage the community to share in this reading experience!

Copies of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for adults to borrow are now available at the library.

All Oliver Wolcott Library events are free and open to the public. Space is limited. Registration is required and can be done by calling 860-567-8030 or logging onto www.owlibrary.org and clicking on Programs/Adult Programs.
