Library Chit Chat 23 February 2009Last modified: February 23, 2009 - 10:00 AM
BookMania
BookMania is Yass Library’s after school book group for students in years 3 to 6. We usually meet on the last Thursday of every month at 4pm. Bookings are not required – just turn up. BookMania goes for one hour and we talk about books, borrow new books and do an activity. Activities may include making book marks, creating displays or craft. Membership to BookMania is free, but you need to have a library card. Our next meeting will be on Thursday 26 February at 4pm. New members are always welcome. On Chesil Beach The next book that the Yass Library Book Club will be discussing is On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan. Ian McEwan has written many books including: Atonement, Saturday and Amsterdam. On Chesil Beach is about a newlywed couple, Edward and Florence, and their anxieties about their wedding night. It is set in 1962 and is a great descriptor of the era. Whilst I didn’t particularly think that there was a good storyline to the book, it was interesting to think that, in the words of the publisher, ‘how the entire course of a life can be changed by a gesture not made or a word not spoken’. Yass Library Book Club will be meeting on Thursday 5th March at 6pm. New members are always welcome. Late Night Thursday Night Don’t forget that the Yass Library is open every Thursday night til 7pm. The Library has photocopying facilities, free Internet access and of course, lots of things for you to borrow. Contact details |
