Saturday, 10/21, 9am-10am, Romp & Rhyme: A baby storytime, followed by coffee and conversation for the adults. Intended for babies and their caregivers! We'll have stories and songs, lap bounces and bubbles, and a reading of a short board book. The storytime itself will last 20-30 minutes, after which you're welcome to stick around for coffee, tea, and some adult conversation.

Saturday, 10/21, 1-2:30pm, Cookbook Club: This potluck-style program will highlight different cookbooks in our collection and introduce us all to new favorites. For our first meeting, we simply ask you to bring a favorite dish to share with the group. Although we will have disposable plates and utensils, we welcome you to bring your own to reduce waste. Don't forget your storage containers; all food must leave the premises at the end of the program! Register here: https://forms.gle/BAtcKJRstbtouu9D6

Wednesday, 10/25, 3:30-4:30pm, Family Book Club: Each month, we encourage kids and their adults to read the same book and then come to the library to discuss it over snacks. You can read the book together, listen to it as an audiobook, or each read the book on your own. Kids of all ages (and their adults) are welcome to attend, but we will be selecting books marketed to kids in grades 3 to 6 (ish). This month, we will meet on the 2nd floor of the library to discuss The Lost Library by Rebecca Stead and Wendy Mass. No pressure to read the entire book ahead of time, but please note that there might be spoilers during our discussion! Contact Catherine (catherine@jerichotownlibraryvt.org) for help locating a copy of the book. Register here: https://forms.gle/iYgFAfcuope482QbA
