About Emily Terifay

Hi! My name is Emily Terifay. I am a current student at Clarion University and studying to become a Librarian. I love books and reading, my favorite genres are fantasy and sci-fi. I also have a mini library at my house and I add more books to it at least every two months. I also have two guinea pigs, Timothy and Lemon who are adorable, if not a little annoying at times.

Posted on by

Want to chat with other parents about the parenting book you just read? Are you looking for a place to discuss the joys and difficulties of raising kids? Join us for Parenting and Paperbacks!

We will be talking about a specific topic, and you are invited to read a book (or two) and come ready to add to the conversation. If you don’t have the opportunity to read a book, come for the discussion anyway!

For this meeting, we’ll be talking about discipline. Books on this topic include The Positive Discipline books; Tiny Humans, Big Emotions; High Five Discipline; Good Inside; No Drama Discipline; Raising Good Humans; 123 Magic; Raising Securely Attached Kids; and Positive Parenting: An Essential Guide.

We welcome kids to come along with their grownups. We’ll lay out some toys, but you are responsible for your child while in the library.

This event will be on Friday January 17th from 10:30 to 11:30 pm!

Audience: Kids, Babies & Toddlers, Family
