We will be reading and discussing the middle grade book, LOYALTY by Avi, which explores the American Revolution from a fresh perspective: the story of a young Loyalist turned British spy navigating patriotism and personal responsibility during the lead-up to the War of Independence. Lots to talk about as part of this celebration of our democracy! (The “book club” and Semiquincentennial celebration will take place on: Friday, June 26, 2026 from 5:30-7pm at Yardstick Books.) Copies of LOYALTY are available at Yardstick Books for $5 and copies are checkout-able at the library.
On First Friday, we will offer refreshments and activities, and will hand out a list of questions and ideas to think about while reading LOYALTY. We hope to see folks of all ages participate—please spread the word!
