Young Hoosier Book Club

Join us for Young Hoosier Book Club for grades 3-5! For the months of August - April, we will meet and discuss one of the Young Hoosier Intermediate Nominated books. In April, we will vote on our favorite and submit our votes to the Young Hoosier Book Committee. In order to be eligible for voting, a member must have participated in at least five meetings, or read at least five nominated books.

This month's book is "The Hiddenseek" by Nate Cernosek. "You hid. But you were not found. You thought you were playing a harmless game. You were wrong." After Holly and Hector Thorn are left behind during a simple game of hide-and-seek, they find themselves transported to a gloomy, magical world seemingly trapped in time--the Hiddenseek. There, It, a witch with the ability to transform into a raven and a wolf, stalks children day and night, turning any she can lay hands on into statues, frozen forever in their final moments of terror. Together with the other lost children they encounter, Holly and Hector will have to unravel the mysterious origins of the Hiddenseek and find a way to put a stop to the curse once and for all, before they get stuck there forever . . . Because in this twisted game of hide-and-seek, they are playing for their lives.

Books can be checked out from the children's desk in advance of this club meeting. Registration is required, but walk-ins will be welcomed based on space availability.
