Formerly First Page Thursday. Join Mr. Josh to read the first few pages of four chapter books together and share first impressions. For grades 3-5. Register to receive a Zoom link.
You do not have to check out the books in order to participate, as I will read the sections aloud, but you can if you wish to read along.
Don't read ahead, to keep your reactions fresh. This month we are previewing the following books:
City of Villains by Estelle Laure
Amari and the Night Brothers by BB Alston
Real by Carol Cujec and Peyton Goddard
The World Between Blinks by Amie Kaufman
This program will be presented on Zoom.
You will receive an e-mail with the participation weblink one day before the program. Please contact the Library if you are unable to attend.
If you do not have an e-mail address, please call 330.724.2126 to learn how to participate by phone.
A webcam and microphone may be necessary to participate fully in this interactive event. If you have one or neither of these, your participation may be limited.

The Firestone Park Branch Library has the tools and resources that customers need to meet their personal and professional goals—computers and computer classes, mini-clinics for one-on-one tech assistance, WiFi, printing, copying, scanning, faxing, and more. A rich collection of books, music, and movies, including a large Parent-Teacher collection, complements these services, offering learning and entertainment opportunities responsive to the needs and interests of the Firestone Park community.
The Firestone Park Branch Library is also a neighborhood hub for programming for all ages—storytime for the youngest customers, Fun Club for school-age visitors, teen gaming and crafting, adult learning opportunities, and an evolving NatureConnect space that inspires outdoor exploration programming across the seasons. Firestone Branch Library staff is out in the community—at schools and local events—and at the library to bring educational and entertainment resources to all.
