American Girl Fun in Ellsworth

Shelly and Julie from Ellsworth have a very popular American Girl Book Club in Ellsworth, it brings in 40-plus girls grades K-5 every month:

We’re celebrating our 5th year of hosting our wildly popular American Girl Book Club. This year we are having adventures focusing on the “Girls of the Year” stories. In October we read “Lanie”, the book featuring the 2010 American Girl of the year. Since Lanie loves nature and promotes recycling, conservation, and good stewardship of our resources, we decided to include in our program a series of nature stations. The girls went on a nature walk, listened to and identified bird songs, and learned about Monarch butterflies and their life cycle. Each girl brought a photo of nature and we titled them to display in the library this month. Our community room was “fluttering” with excitement. With several different activities for the girls to participate in, we kept them involved and excited throughout the entire morning.
