"This winter, a group of ACS Athens 5th grade enthusiastic readers are coming together to discuss one of the newest Newbery Award-winning books titled "When You Trap a Tiger" by Tae Keller. 

This is a weekly Book Club where we meet during our lunch break to share our thoughts about what we're reading. 

Whether we are in person or virtual, we can still find a way to come together!

I think it's important to give students an opportunity to come together in small groups where a love for reading can be shared. 

When we have the chance to read the same book and talk about it, it reaches a point of deeper thoughts and critical thinking which only encourages more excitement about reading and learning."
