Chapter Chat Book Club
Chapter Chat is a read-together group for folks 17 and older who have intellectual disabilities. The group meets every week to read a novel together.
At the event, we will take turns reading aloud from the book. You can read aloud as much or as little as you like, or you can just listen! This is not a reading instruction class: we read together to socialize and share the experience of reading a good book.
This group is limited to ten participants. Registration is required. Please call Riverton Library at 856-829-2476 for more information about the group and what we’re reading. This event will be on Monday, October 28th from 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm!

Parenting and Paperbacks
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 communication. Books on this topic include How to Talk to Kids About Anything; What Do You Say: How to Talk to Kids to Build Motivation, Stress tolerance, and a Happy home; Fourteen Talks by Age Fourteen; Voice Lessons for Parents; How to Talk So Little Kids Will Listen; Raising a Socially Successful Child; What Babies Say Before They Can Talk; 1-2-3 Magic Teen; How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk; Talk With Your Kids: 109 Conversations about Ethics and the Things that Really Matter; and My First Baby Signs.
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, October 18th at 10:30 am to 11:30 am!
