Details

Join us in August as we read The Fourteenth Goldfish by Jennifer L. Holm.

Here is the publisher's description of the book:

"Eleven-year-old Ellie has never liked change. She misses fifth grade. She misses her old best friend. She even misses her dearly departed goldfish. Then one day a strange boy shows up. He’s bossy. He’s cranky. And weirdly enough . . . he looks a lot like Ellie’s grandfather, a scientist who’s always been slightly obsessed with immortality. Could this gawky teenager really be Grandpa Melvin? Has he finally found the secret to eternal youth?

With a lighthearted touch and plenty of humor, Jennifer Holm celebrates the wonder of science and explores fascinating questions about life and death, family and friendship, immortality . . . and possibility."

We meet in Chapbook Cafe inside Schuler Books, and we will have a sign on the table so we are easy to find. This will be a fun, casual conversation with fellow book lovers. Can’t wait to see you there!
