Parenting and Paperbacks

Want to chat with other parents about the parenting book you just read? Are you looking for a place to discuss the joys and difficulties of raising kids? Join us for Parenting and Paperbacks!

We will be talking about a specific topic, and you are invited to read a book (or two) and come ready to add to the conversation. If you don't have the opportunity to read a book, come for the discussion anyway! 

For this meeting, we'll be talking about learning and school. Books on this topic include

• Everything You Need to Know About Homeschooling;
• Middle School Superpowers;
• Partnering with Parents to Ask the Right Questions;
• Mobilizing the Community to Help Students Succeed;
• How We Learn: Why Brains Learn Better Than Any Machine;
• How Other Children Learn;
• How Children Learn Through Play;
• Activating the Desire to Learn;
• How to Talk So Kids Can Learn;
• The Gift of Failure;
• How We Learn: The Surprising Truth about When, How, and Why It Happens;
• You, Your Child, and School;
• The Montessori Toddler;
• Preschool Clues;
• What Your Preschooler Needs to Know;
• The Importance of Being Little;
• School Starts at Home;
• How Children Learn Through Play;
• and The Parent Backpack for Kindergarten through Grade 5

We welcome kids to come along with their grownups. We'll lay out some toys, but you are responsible for your child while in the library.
