Saratoga Arts and Northshire Bookstore are excited to offer a unique summer camp experience for children who love to read, write and talk about books!
At the start of the summer, each registered child will receive a box of five carefully selected books, and then each day of camp will explore one of those books in depth, including talking with authors either in person or via skype! Students will write, read, discuss, re-enact, play book-inspired games and more while they learn about some of the best of today’s children’s literature.
