Wheatgrass Books presents a brand-new kids’ book club this fall: High Tea Tales: A Beginning Book Club for Story Lovers, a whimsical, story-centered gathering for kids ages 6–10 who love imagination, laughter, and great tales—whether they read, listen, or enjoy them as a family read-aloud.

Led by Hannah Roseberry of the Curious Camps Company, this beginner-friendly book club meets at Wheatgrass Books on the second Thursday of each month from 3:45 to 5:45 pm, located at 120 N. Main St., in Livingston.

Kids are invited to dress the part with top hats, mustaches, gloves, boas or jewelry as we sip tea, nibble treats, and explore story structure through fun discussions and themed activities.

The books are chosen for humor, heart, and approachable novella length, so they’re fun and easy to enjoy without adding too much to a busy schedule. Each title is available in print and as an audiobook through LibroFM, and we’re offering 10–20% off all book club selections in-store.

Here’s the fall lineup:

  • September 11th – Mrs. Piggle Wiggle by Betty MacDonald
  • October 9th – Appleblossom the Possum by Holly Goldberg Sloan
  • November 13th – Freddy the Detective by Walter R. Brooks
  • December 11th – Skunk and Badger (Book 1) by Amy Timberlake

Families will also receive optional prep materials before each session—discussion questions, creative prompts, and more—to help kids engage with the story in whatever way works best for them. No reading level required, just a love of stories (and maybe a little pinky-up silliness)!

Developing a love of good stories—without the pressure to read perfectly—can reignite excitement about books, even in reluctant or struggling readers. When reading becomes playful and social, it opens the door to deeper confidence and lifelong enjoyment.
