(T) Tween Snack n' Chat: Restart

Ages 9-12.  For March, Tween Snack n' Chat is discussing Gordon Korman's Restart.

After a fall leaves eighth-grader Chase Ambrose with no memory of his past, he has to figure out who he is by listening to everyone around him — even when they strongly disagree. With his signature humor and heart, Gordon Korman tells a fast-paced story about identity, second chances, and deciding whether you’re stuck with the person you were or free to become someone better.

We will discuss the book, enjoy a snack and complete a fun book-related craft. We have a limited number of free library copies, please contact the library at 856-854-2752 to request one.  Copies are first come first serve.
