We’re always asking around which Chapter Books are your child’s favorite. We decided not only to use these themes as our guidelines but also to feature particular series that we know are of good quality content.
Here are some of our favorites that will be featured in this series.
Virtual Chapter Book Club Series we’re using
October- The Boxcar Children
November – Whatever After Series
December – Holiday Chapter Books
January – Magic School Bus Chapter Books
February – America Girl Series
March –Babymouse Series
April – Geronimo Stilton Series
May – DK EyeWitness Books

Here’s how our Virtual Chapter Book Club is going to work…
- At the beginning of each month we will spotlight the new theme and a chapter book series that relates to the theme. We’ll share some details about the books we are choosing and we’ll pick a book or two or three in the series to read during the month.
- During the month we will read the book(s) and do some book related crafts or activities.
- On the first Tuesday of the month indicated above we will share about the books we read and post the book related crafts and/or activities that we did (for example on Oct 1st we will share our first post about mysteries).
- Lastly we’ll add a link up to the bottom of our blog post so that if you are a blogger you can join in and share what book-related crafts and activities you did with your kids!
If you aren’t a blogger you can still participate by sharing your ideas on our Virtual Book Club for Kids Facebook wall or in the comments of this post.
Here are our Virtual Chapter Book Club Participating Blogger for this year long series:

I am so glad that you are interested in participating!!! You can choose any book or series within the theme / genre, we will just highlight that particular series of books.
This is very interesting, and I'd like to join, but do we have to read the same book or can we choose a different series?
