Preschool Storytime

For kids ages 3-5. Fridays at 10:00 am in the Hundred Acre Wood. Drop in.

Musical Storytime

A three week program of stories, songs and movement for toddlers, eighteen months and older, accompanied by an adult. The group meets on three Mondays from 10:00 am to 10:30 am. There is a $15 registration fee.

The winter/spring sessions are done. Please check back closer to September for our fall dates.

The I Love Reading Club

A discussion group for enthusiastic readers in grades 4 to 6. The fee for the program is the price of the books to be discussed. Pre-registration is required.

Our next session will be Tuesdays, April 3rd, 17th, and May 3rd (please note date change). We will be reading: Tunnels of Time by Mary Harelkin Bishop, The Wreckers by Iain Lawrence, and Alchemy and Meggy Swann by Karen Cushman.

Be First Reading Club

Read a book before it's published! Our Be First reading group for teens is a book club with a difference. Sign up at the Kids Desk and receive a preview copy of a selected title and read the book before it even hits the shelves. These books are pre-publication copies of books that are normally only available to industry insiders. What's more, they're free to our Be First book club members.

The next session will be on Thursday, May 24th at 7:00 pm. We will be reading Grim by Anna Waggener.

Two Thumbs Up Review Program

We would like to offer kids and teens an opportunity to review hot (as in, hot off the press!), new books for our McNally Robinson website.

Here's how it works: You sign out an advance reading copy of a new title from our "behind the desk" supply, read the book, write a short 50-100 word review. You can either email it to us at mcnallygrantreviews@gmail.com or bring it to us in person. Then take another book and do it again! See our reviews here

Fine print: We will require a parent's signed permission to publish your review on our website.
