第19章 Lesson 18: The Storybook Club

My friends and I have a storybook club. Every Saturday morning, we meet at someone's house to read storybooks together. We each bring one storybook and then take turns reading our story to everyone else.

Once a month, one of our mothers takes us all to the library. We love going there! Sometimes there is an author at the library, and he or she reads stories to us. Other times the librarian reads stories to us. After storytime, we look at the books on the shelves. My friends and I each choose three books to take home.

I like our storybook club very much.
