For readers ages 10-14.

This month, we're reading Camp Prodigy by Caroline Palmer.

After attending an incredible concert, Tate Seong is inspired to become a professional violist. There's just one problem: they're the worst musician at their school. Tate doesn't even have enough confidence to assert themself with their friends or come out as nonbinary to their family, let alone attempt a solo anytime soon. Things start to look up when Tate attends a summer orchestra camp--Camp Prodigy--and runs into Eli, the remarkable violist who inspired Tate to play in the first place. But Eli has been hiding their skills ever since their time in the spotlight gave them a nervous breakdown. Together, can they figure out how to turn Tate into a star and have Eli overcome their performance anxieties? Or will the pressure take them both down?

The book is available for pickup in the at the Children’s Desk or in the Teen Room.

Tween Graphic Novel Book Club will meet in Youth Services Study Room 3 (Large Study Room).
