It’s time to announce our next Family Dinner Book Club selection!  For the June Family Dinner Book Club we featured Cook-A-Doodle-Doo. This month we switch back to a chapter book.

Full disclosure:  This post contains affiliate links for your convenience.  Your support of Growing Book by Book is greatly appreciated.

The Family Dinner Book Club selection for July is…

Family Dinner Book Club featuring Pippi Longstocking

Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren

There is a new neighbor in town and her name is Pippi Longstocking. She has crazy red pigtails, no parents to tell her what to do, a horse that lives on her porch, and a flair for the outrageous that seems to lead to one adventure after another!

If you live near Philadelphia or will be visiting there this summer, you will want to check out the Pippi Longstocking exhibit at the American Swedish Historical Museum.

Participating in Family Dinner Book Club is easy and fun!

How Family Dinner Book Club Works

1.  So, get your copy of Pippi Longstocking and start reading. You can borrow it from the library or from a friend, find it on your bookshelf or purchase a copy.

2.  Then, on July 15th, check back here for all your Family Dinner Book Club preparation needs.  Links will be provided for your dinner conversation table topics from Growing Book by Book,  arts and crafts table decorations from a special guest blogger and your book related menu from Daisy at Home.

3.  Decide which night towards the end of July works best for your family to  have Family Dinner Book Club.   Set the table, prepare the food and settle in for a nice cozy dinner to discuss the book.

4.  Don’t forget to snap a picture of your Family Dinner Book Club and share it with us on our Family Dinner Book Club Facebook page!

5.  Then, head back here on August 1st, to see our new title for the month of August and participate all over again!

Are you following Growing Book by Book on Facebook? If you haven’t liked us, please do so! We have some great conversations about literacy on the page. I also share some of my great literacy finds from other bloggers.

If you live near Philadelphia or will be visiting there this summer, you will want to check out the Pippi Longstocking exhibit at the American Swedish Historical Museum.

    What a fun idea! I have never read this book, but it would be a great read aloud for the family. Thanks 🙂
