About the event
Calling all young readers who love magic, mischief, and a good laugh! This month we’re diving into the graphic novel retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, an accessible, beautifully illustrated version of the classic full of fairy kingdoms, enchanted forests, and hilarious mix-ups.
Through discussion and an art-based activity, we will explore the story’s big personalities (Puck! Titania! Bottom!), talk about how the graphic format brings Shakespeare to life, and share their favorite moments of comedy, friendship, and magic.
This club is perfect for readers who:
✔ love graphic novels
