Join us monthly for Nature’s Playhouse nonfiction book
discussion. Each month we will focus on a different book exploring
parenting, wellness, and personal growth. Check the schedule of
books below, read the book for the month that you’re interested in,
or come every month. Bring an open mind to listen and consider the
perspectives of others while sharing your own thoughts to enrich
the group. Kids are welcome to play while we discuss the book.
Visit your local bookstore, get the audiobook, or check out a copy
at the library and we’ll see you soon!
