Chick Lit on Wheels
Can your summer be described in three words: boring, boring, and boring? The Austin Public Library Chick Lit on Wheels program rolls to the rescue! We’re celebrating teen books for girls. Come learn how to make sugar scrub, compete in the Passionate Reading Contest, and play “Chick Lit” Jeopardy with super fun categories like Meg Cabot, TV and Movie Crossovers, and Vampires, Witches and Werewolves, oh my! We’ve also got a free book for everyone who comes, plus a chance to win a fabulous door prize. So what are you waiting for girls? For more information please call 512-974-7302 or visit www.cityofaustin.org/library.
