This program is co-sponsored by the Friends of the Library, Montgomery County, Inc.

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.
