Children's Program RoomGet to know other tweens through a thoughtful book discussion. This month's book is "Alyte" by Jérémie Moreau. Ages 9–12.
Book summary:
Barely born and already a survivor, Alyte the toad is forced to escape from birds, bears, and other "gods" of the river. Along the way, however, he encounters new friends in nature, each of whom teaches him about the world in their own way, awakening him to all of its beauties. From creator Jérémie Moreau, Alyte confronts the often violent, unforgiving nature of the world we live in—as close to us as it is invisible—with the notion of resistance as an act of survival.
