Teen Graphic Novel: "Sheets" Grab 'n' Go In-Person
Join our super fun & informal book club for grades 7-12!
Snag a copy of our latest graphic novel pick, Sheets by Brenna Thummler, read the book in May, & then meet-up with us on our Teen Discord Server’s #BookChat Channel on June 9 at 4pm to chat!
Story blurb: “Marjorie Glatt feels like a ghost. A practical thirteen-year-old in charge of the family laundry business, her daily routine features unforgiving customers, unbearable P.E. classes, and the fastidious Mr. Saubertuck who is committed to destroying everything she’s worked for. Wendell is a ghost. A boy who lost his life much too young, his daily routine features ineffective death therapy, a sheet-dependent identity, and a dangerous need to seek purpose in the forbidden human world. When their worlds collide, Marjorie is confronted by unexplainable disasters as Wendell transforms Glatt’s Laundry into his midnight playground, appearing as a mere sheet during the day. While Wendell attempts to create a new afterlife for himself, he unknowingly sabotages the life that Marjorie is struggling to maintain."
This program includes a Teen Grab 'n' Go kit for grades 7-12. The first 12 teen registrants will receive an email from a Teen staff member during Library hours (Monday, Thursday, Friday & Saturday 10am-5pm or Tuesday & Wednesday 1pm-8pm) to notify you of the pick-up window AND to share the Teen Discord Server link.
Teens: Please be sure to check your spam folder if you haven't heard from us within 48 hours. Registration for a Teen Grab ‘n’ Go kit starts on May 4th and will be available while supplies last. Registration can be done in-person or online. We will send 1 follow-up email reminder to teen registrants 1 week before the designated pick-up window ends. If you miss the pick-up window, we will assume you're no longer interested and will make your spot available for another interested teen. Thank you for your understanding.
Missed out on a kit but would still like to join the conversation on our Teen Discord Server? Register here: Teen Graphic Novel: Sheets" Discord Meet-Up to receive *just* the Teen Discord link (open to grades 7-12 only).
