Book Club/ Story Time

Please join us this Wednesday at the Stake center at 10:30 for a fun filled story time. The theme for this week is Dr. Seuss. The older kids will be talking about the book My Dog May be a Genius. Even if your child hasn't read it, come anyway. We had a lot of fun last week just talking about books, and you can sign up for the book club, and see what other books we will be reading this summer. See you there!
