On July 25th, the Homeschool Book Club will be discussing Mr. Lemoncello’s Very First Game, by Chris Grabenstein at 12:00-1:00 pm. 
Before Mr. Lemoncello became everyone’s favorite game maker, he was a kid who liked to roll the dice. . . . In this PREQUEL to the New York Times bestselling Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library we head back to the START and meet thirteen-year-old, PUZZLE-obsessed Luigi Lemoncello! Luigi has a knack for games and puzzles. But sometimes it feels like the cards are stacked against him. UNTIL a carnival arrives in town and Luigi gets the CHANCE OF A LIFETIME—the opportunity to work for the world famous Professor Marvelmous, a dazzling, banana-hat-wearing barker who puts the SHOW in SHOWMAN! When the carnival closes, Professor Marvelmous leaves behind a mysterious puzzle box along with a clue. A clue that will lead Luigi and his friends on a fantastical treasure hunt to a prize beyond anything they could imagine—if they can find it!
Copies are available behind the circulation desk.
The discussion will be held in the tween area. Homeschool students are welcome to sign up with Mrs. Fig. by emailing her at [email protected]. This book group is for readers ages 9 –12.
