Now there's a book club just for kids! We'll meet Mondays starting in June, and kids will pick a book to read that week. Then we'll have a themed book event the following Monday — with crafts, games and activities — and pick another book for the next week. You can even dress up as a book character from the book. All summer long! Get ready to jump into stories!

Julie Lucht holds a BA in journalism. Her childhood was filled with trips to the library and museum with her mother. These trips, along with her two incredible daughters, were the inspiration for the strong, independent and curious Poppy. Julie wishes she could travel through the paintings like Poppy. Currently, Julie lives in Texas with her wonderful husband and loves reading, her family and her dogs. Poppy Through the Paintings is her first children's book.

Monthly Game Night
Game Night Third Thursday of Every Month, 6-8 p.m.
Save the date for Thursday, July 17 from 6 to 8 p.m. for
O’Brien’s Bookshop’s Prompt Game Night! This is a monthly
event, so mark your calendar for the third Thursday evening
of every month. You don’t want to miss any of the fun!
Prompt™ is O’Brien’s Bookshop’s own board game (think
Apples to Apples® combined with Mad Libs®). It’s a family
game for anyone ages 4 to 104. The rules are simple, and the
main purpose of the game is to make you laugh. No special
knowledge — of anything really — required to play.
We’ll also have cold drinks and snacks for sale, plus
other games to play. You can even bring your own games. We
hope to see you there!
