On Tuesday, September 16th at 12:30 – 1:30 p.m., the Homeschool Book Club for 8 – 10 year olds will be discussing Liar, Liar (Whatever After #16) by Sarah Mlynowski.
This fractured fairy tale for fearless kids will hopefully engage readers.
The main character says, “My little brother Jonah and I have a magic mirror in our basement. This time, the mirror takes us and drops us into the story of Pinocchio. Our task? To help Gepetto get his wooden puppet son, Pinocchio, to go to school. But even though his nose grows when he lies, Pinocchio is tricky ― and he ends up sneaking back into OUR world with us!
So we need to:
-Find the Blue Fairy.
-Convince our friends and teachers that Pinocchio is our cousin . . . but lying isn’t easy when your nose grows!
-And avoid ending up in the belly of a shark.
We need to find a way to get Pinocchio home . . . and that’s no lie!
Homeschool students are welcome to sign up with Mrs. Fig. by emailing her at jfigurelli@killingworthlibrary.org. Copies of this book are available at the circulation desk.
