Book Tasting for Teens March 13 from
6:30–7:30 p.m. at KML.
Teens grades 6–12 can try a bite of various books as they attend the KML Book Cafe. Sample real snacks while rotating through tables. At each table, you “taste” a book that looks interesting to you. This is a great way to “check” out books without the commitment!
