Early Reader's Book Club
We read books all about creepy crawlies, created bug crafts, and met some real life cockroaches! |
"I love sitting down with the family to read together. But I even take my book to the beach and on road trips. I get more time to read during the summer months than I do the rest of the year. I really love the summer reading program! Thank you for putting this on for the community!" |
"I liked the crafts at the library! It made it fun to come in each week to new crafts. I like the activities that are sent home. So awesome! I like all the books, they are my favourite thing " |
"This year's theme was so interesting. Really enjoyed learning about different places and promoting travel and reading about the world. Also really appreciated having so many craft kits put together with so much thought and creativity. In particular having adult craft kits is a nice way to include the big kids :) |
"Coloring in the library with my parents and brother!" |
"The STEM activities for the kids and adults were so fun! I loved the weekly craft, the post cards for the crafts weren’t as obvious so we missed that even though we did do every craft. I loved the adult craft! It made it so fun to participate in. Thanks again!" |
"Reading nightly with my daughter. We actually read every night of the challenge, however couldn’t log one or two because of no service where we were. It was exiting to see how many minutes we read together and to see which books she gravitated too." |
Coming Soon... Here's a sneak peak at some of the books that are currently being processed by Hinton Municipal Library staff and will be available soon! PSA: We update the "Coming Soon" list on our website every week with ALL the new books coming to the Hinton Municipal Library, so click here to check it out! |

Flight : a novel
by Natalie Keller Reinert
"In Natalie Keller Reinert's beloved eight-book Eventing Series, we follow Jules and her friends through the joys and heartbreaks of the competitive eventing circuit, as they work their way into elite echelons-and into one another's lives and hearts. Utterly immersive and propulsive, this series is an unforgettable journey for anyone who has ever fallen in love with horses, or humans. Ten months after giving birth to her son, Jules is back on top. Or, she's ready to be. She and Pete have traveled to Maryland in prep for the Chesapeake Three-Day Event, one of America's toughest events, for the first time. A big win could be the perfect cap to her comeback season. Jules is where she belongs competition-wise, but there's one problem: she's in the wrong state. Because the fact is, Jules just hates Maryland. With Lindsay and Lacey holding down the fort back in Florida, Jules knows her farm is in safe hands, but that doesn't stop her from feeling homesick. And life on the road with a baby and his nanny is difficult and distracting. Jules has six weeks to prove that she can survive at the top of her sport, while being the wife and mother she wants to be. Can she put up with snooty Hunt Country eventers, an old-school trainer who isn't ready to give up her horses to Jules and Pete, and way too little sunshine? And what will Jules' future look like, now that horses are no longer the most important thing in her life?"

Before they were men / : Essays on a Gender Crisis
by Jacob Tobia
"The conversation about masculinity, patriarchy, and misogyny has never been so prominent or heated. Alarmed by a new generation of angry, broken young men, genderqueer writer Jacob Tobia set out to explore what was going on and came to a shocking conclusion: emotionally and spiritually-speaking, men and boys may be the ones suffering the most under the gender binary right now. Jacob should know. For their gender-defying adolescent heart, the nonconsensual process of being "made a man" was crushing. After spending a lifetime fleeing manhood and masculinity, Jacob dares to ask the question: what happens if we stop understanding men as categorical beneficiaries of patriarchal institutions and start understanding them for what they are - co-survivors of patriarchy itself? In a series of personal and devastating essays, Before They Were Men argues that we must rewire our entire framework of feminism. A much-needed nonbinary intervention into a two-sided discourse gone stale, Jacob boldly posits compassion and empathy as the paradigm-shifting forces that will lead men - and us all - to a brighter future. Urgent, surprising, and at times, hilarious, they cover topics like: The unspoken body image issues and dysmorphia confronting men and boys. The difficulty of challenging a world that glorifies war, aggression, and the violence of men. The case for rethinking, and ultimately retiring, counterproductive terms like "Toxic Masculinity" and "Male Privilege.""-- Provided by publisher
