By Maneet Sodhi
Have you heard? Two great new clubs has just started! Silver Birch and Red Maple give a great opportunity to read books! Every year, these clubs offer ten exciting books to their members. When they read a minimum of five and receive teacher expert approvals for them, they will be given a chance to vote for their favourite. The voting takes place all over Canada. Every year, a trip is held to the Powerade Centre for special performances. The Silver Birch and Red Maple clubs are always fun to join.
“Silver Birch is a great opportunity to read new books.” Says Hibbah, a current member of Silver Birch.
