March 22 – April 22

Get ready for some fin-tastic fun and underwater adventure with our Narwhal and Jelly Book Club Kit giveaway!

Stop by the Children’s Desk or Douglass Branch to pick up a free book club kit. Along with a copy of Narwhal: Unicorn of the Sea by Ben Clanton, the kit will contain fun activities that go along with the book.

How it works:

  1. Stop by the Children’s Desk or Douglass Branch to pick up your Narwhal and Jelly Book Club Kit anytime between Sunday, March 22 and Wednesday, April 22, during open hours.

  2. Read  Narwhal and Jelly  – meet Narwhal, the happy-go-lucky unicorn of the sea, and Jelly, his no-nonsense best friend, as they dive into ocean adventures full of friendship, imagination, and waffles!

  3. Complete as many of the included activities as you’d like to keep the excitement going as you read.

When you’re done, join us for a special "Meet the Author!" event –  An Evening with Ben Clanton on Wednesday, April 22 at 6:30pm, part of the  Great Authors at the Library  series. This is your chance to meet the author and illustrator behind the hilarious duo and learn more about Ben’s books and career.
