Five Tuesday meetings run Jan. 12–May 11, 2027, with a different announced title each month. Registration is required by 3:30 p.m. Jan. 12; registering through the first occurrence also covers the later dates.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
From C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in January to Louis Sachar’s Holes in May, Lochwood Branch Library’s Family Book Club sets a different shared reading for each of five monthly meetings. Families discuss each book before watching a film adaptation.
This is not just a screening attached to a book list. The announced format puts family reading first, followed by a chance to discuss the book with other participating families and then watch its film adaptation.
That sequence gives the gathering two distinct parts: readers can share their responses to the text, then see an adaptation afterward. The listing does not identify which film versions will be shown.

The library announces all five books in advance, so families can plan their shared reading around a specific title rather than an unannounced selection. The sequence runs from January’s C.S. Lewis to May’s Louis Sachar, with a new book scheduled each month.
The event information does not say whether the library provides copies or whether participants should bring a book. Families who need to know before attending can check with Lochwood Branch Library.
