Program Description

Event Details

Join us for Young Hoosier Book Club for grades 3-5! Every month, we will meet and discuss one of the Young Hoosier Intermediate Nominated books. Each month we will rate the book on a scale of 1-5. In April, our ratings will be submitted to the Young Hoosier Book Award Committee.

This month, we will be reading, "The Greatest Kid in the World" by John David Anderson. When Zeke, an admittedly "bad" kid, is mistakenly chosen to compete in the Greatest Kid in the World contest, he must change his behavior for the better. As Zeke concocts various plots to show the world just how “great” he is, however, he finds himself wondering what that word even means, and who gets to decide. And what kind of kid he wants--and needs--to be.
