CThumanities presents Book Voyagers

Come sign up for our Book Voyagers family reading program! Author, illustrator and teacher Jason Deeble will share books, activities, and new ways to bring literature to life.

Jason has been a middle school math and science teacher at the Integrated Day Charter School in Norwich for over a decade, but when he isn’t teaching his restless creativity drives him toward a multitude of artistic endeavors.

The Book Voyagers will be meeting at the library each Monday starting at 6:00p.m., from March 9th to March 30th. For grades 1st through 3rd plus parent/guardian, the program is free and open to the public; registration is required. Tell your friends and encourage family reading at home!
