Designed for adults and older teens with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, the club welcomes readers and aspiring readers to join together for reading, listening, and discussion of one book over the course of each session.
We use adapted novels and age-appropriate short stories. Visuals and other built-in supports are provided to increase fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary.
The ability to read is not a requirement for this book club. Participants will be assisted in reading if they wish, or they may listen instead and join in the discussion following the reading time. The text of the book is provided by screen sharing during the program, so there is no need to obtain a physical copy of the book.
In this session we will read Finders Keepers by Melanie McFarlane. In this story a twelve year old treasure hunter, her best friend, and younger brother find a mermaid who tells them they were captured by a 'Beast'. Determined to return the mermaid to her home the group search for a magical shell. But can they find it before the Beast does?
