American Girl Book Club meets Samantha

Gabriella decorates her paper doll during the American Girl Book Club meeting at Mentor Library.

Our American Girl Book Club met Samantha on Wednesday! They also decorated paper dolls, made fans and even practiced their posture.

Remember our American Girl Book Club? The one where kids make everything from kites to rag dolls to dreamcatchers and talk about classic American Girl books?

We meet on the first Wednesday of each month to discuss a different American Girl book and make a new craft.

Abby and Sarah make paper fans.

If you have a child who likes the American Girl books or dolls, then he or she can join the fun. They can even bring their dolls with them, if they like. (Of course, the dolls aren’t required.) The club is for kids from six to 12 years old.

Our next meeting is 4 p.m. on Sept. 2 in the children’s section of our Main Branch on Mentor Avenue. The girls will be meeting Rebecca.

You can register your child for the book club on our web site or by calling (440) 255-8811 ext. 221.

Eva practices her posture the way they did back in Samantha's time.
