The Blue Hill Public Library invites kids to join the “Inklings” Book and Movie Club on Saturday April 28th at 2:00 PM. Inklings explores stories of clever children who use their wits to overcome insurmountable odds. This month the group will read The Gauntlet, by Karuna Riazzi, and watch the movie, Jumanji, which was based on the book. The Gauntlet was inspired by the children’s book Jumanji by Chris Van Allsburg.
Youth Librarian Libby Edwardson says, “A trio of friends from New York City find themselves trapped inside a mechanical board game that they must dismantle in order to save themselves and generations of other children in this action-packed debut. Come unlock the mystery with us while you have some snacks, make a mind blowing craft, and discuss the movie and BOTH books!”
“Inklings” welcomes kids of all ages. The books and movies the group reads and watches together cover a wide range of subjects and styles, and the library encourages families to research them in advance and decide which are right for each child. For more information call Libby at 374-5515.
