2. Thayer Public Library hosts its "Book Club for grades 2 & 3" from 3:45 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. in the Logan Auditorium.

"For the  grade 2 & 3 Book Club, the kids chose the second in the series about Stink Moody: 'Stink and the incredible super-galactic jawbreakerl by Megan McDonald for November. It is full of funny times from Stink's life. They liked the September selection so much, they decided to read another one about Stink."
