Birthday Book Club


The library is proud to present the Birthday Book Club! Parents, relatives and friends have the opportunity to share their child’s birthday by donating a new book to the French Library.
 
Birthday books are chosen from a special selection of books that have been ordered especially for the Birthday Book Club. Your child may pick out a book or you can pick it out and surprise them! A special bookplate with your child's name and birthdate will be permanently placed in the front of the book. Your child will be the first student to check it out. After the special two-week checkout period, the book will become a part of French’s library collection for all students to enjoy! 

Additionally, members of French’s Birthday Book Club will have their book read to them in class by a staff/faculty member of their choice. Students with summer birthdays may celebrate with a birthday book at any time during the school year. 

The cost of each Birthday Book is $15. 

As always, thank you for supporting the French Library program!
