Paren'ting Book Club at Runnymede Library
The new year brings with it new opportunities. For the library, the new year also means new programs.
One innovative program at our Runnymede library is the Paren'ting Book Club which meets for the first time on Tuesday January 15 at 10 a.m. Mary Ann, the librarian who founded the club, wanted to present an alternative to the paid programs for paren'ts that take place around the city.
"Sometimes money is a bit tight when people go to mat leave or have single paren't families, so I thought a paren'ting book club would be fun," she explains.
Mary Ann has 3 young children aged 5, 3 and 1 and believes that the Paren'ting Book Club is a great way for paren'ts to connect and share paren'ting techniques. The tone will be relaxed, she says. "It is a "guilt free" book club – read the book before, during or after! With young
children, you never know when you will have time for reading."
On January 15, the club will discuss French Kids Eat Everything by Karen le Billon. It is also available as an eBook.
Everyone is welcome!
