Devinny’s Birthday Book Club
For many years, Devinny’s Birthday Book Club has been a way of
involving the student body in adding to the library’s ever
expanding book collection. This birthday celebration truly is a
grand event and something students and staff look forward to
every year.
Should you choose to participate,
the form and $18.00 (the
average cost of a new hardcover book) will be collected between
now and the month prior to the student’s birthday. We use birthday book funds to purchase
brand new fiction, nonfiction, and picture books for the Devinny collection. These new books will
be put aside for your son/daughter when, during the month of their birthday, they will come to
the library to celebrate their special day. During the birthday book club party, students receive
a special goodie bag and crown, select their “Birthday Book,” and have their picture taken to be
placed inside the book they selected. If you wish to have your child participate but their
birthday is:
a.) in August- they will be part of the September celebration, or
b.) in June or July- they will be part of the April or May celebration.
If you would like your child to participate, please complete and return the form to school. Each book costs $18.00 and must be paid for
no later than 1 month prior to the student’s birthday. If you have already paid, please
complete the bottom portion of the form and return it to school so we can make sure we have
all the needed information. As always, thank you for supporting literacy and Devinny’s library!
