Virtual Family-Friendly iRead Book Club: Number the Stars

Join us for a virtual book discussion led by our Museum Educators. This week, we will discuss Number the Stars by Lois Lowry. In Number the Stars, ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen watches as the Danish Resistance smuggles almost the entire Jewish population of Denmark, nearly seven thousand people, across the sea to Sweden. The heroism of an entire nation reminds us that there was compassion and human decency in the world even during a time of terror and war.

The conversation will take place on the online platform Zoom. After you register, the link to join will be available on the PDF version of your ticket (attached to your email confirmation). We will also resend the link via email 30 minutes before the start of the program.

Space is limited! Please register for one ticket per device used.

This program is recommended for students in 6th – 12th grade and adults.
