Welcome to the Fair Haven After School/Lunch Wave Book Club. We will need to come up with a better name once we start meeting regularly! This group will meet on Wednesdays for the after school program from 3:00 - 5:00 and on Mondays during your lunch wave (12:45 - 1:15). We will meet in the Library Media Center. Our first book will be The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Before beginning the book, let's learn about the author and what motivated her to write this important book.
