Join us for a weekly book club for children who are learning to read!

As a group we’ll read and talk about the book together, then children will have the chance to build literacy skills with different hands-on stations with the help of our teen volunteers from the Gaithersburg Youth Center. You do not need to read the book before the program.

For Grades Preschool-1st. Parents/caregivers MUST accompany children under the age of 8 during the program.

Please note: there is no My First Book Club when MCPS schools are closed or have a half day.

This program is in partnership with the City of Gaithersburg Department of Parks, Recreation & Culture.

Sponsored by Friends of the Library, Montgomery County.

Library Program Attendance (both virtual and in the branch) is limited to participants within the suggested age range of the program. Adults attending a program intended for children must have an accompanying child.
