I'm in a book club and need ideas to do with books like drawings of the characters ect...What are good kid book club ideas?
Write a diary entry as a character.
Make readers theater out of good parts.
Book-a-roni Pizza -- construction paper cut into a circle. Make a collage about the book one one side. Tell about your favorite part on the back.
Make a movie poster for your book.What are good kid book club ideas?
You can read the Harry Potter series. You can sort the kids into houses (Gryphindor, Slytheirn, Revenclaw, etc.) and award points. In the end of the year you can have a big celebration and anounce who wins the house cup. Things you can do with harry potter are so limitless. You can watch the movies, draw the characters and creatures, dress up as wizards and witches, make pumpkin juice and chocolate frogs, you can play outdoor "quidditch", etc.
If you get to the fourth book you can have a triwizard tournament!!!!
Hope this helps

Can an employer force unwork related book club upon employees?
A local employer that is a auto dealership. Is making their male employees read a book about football. Then, every week they must talk about what they read in a sort of "book report". Is this legal?? The owner is not taking "NO" for an answer with employers and keeps calling them into his office on why they are not participating.Can an employer force unwork related book club upon employees?
Sounds like a team building exercise.
Of course he can't. BUt in the real world, employment is at will; failing to participate in a team building exerecise is not only a legal reason to fire, it might even be enough to deny unemployment.
Read the damm book. It's not the most unreasonable thing you'll be asked to do by a bossCan an employer force unwork related book club upon employees?
As long as the employer gives the employees time to read the book at work it is 100% legal. If he requires them to do so at home, it is 100% illegal.
If he's a private employer with only a few employees, there aren't many laws protecting the workers however.
If he is forcing them to work "off the clock" by reading the book or preparing the report, then he should be reported to the department of labor in your area.Can an employer force unwork related book club upon employees?
no, he cannot do that. He is not a licenced teacher....duh

What should I serve at book club?
I'm hosting book club for 7-10 woman at the end of January. We read Breathing Lessons by Anne Tyler. It's nice to have a few appetizers sitting out that don't need to be kept hot and won't go bad after 2 hours. I love to cook and would like something more unique than artichoke dip :) Also, any drink suggestions (I'm pregnant as is one other member, but the others love an alcoholic drink).What should I serve at book club?
From what you said, you like to cook and you want something unusual. Probably not a cheese tray. Here are some great appetizers I've fixed and love. Something sweet and something salty! I would just pick up red and white wine to go with it. Have fun!
1. Goug猫res -- the best cheese puffs you've ever tasted. Goug猫res are best served warm, so pipe them at the last minute and bake them just before your guests arrive. They're also good at room temp.
2. Goat Cheese, Roasted Pepper and Basil Appetizers --The combination of marinated goat cheese, roasted peppers and fresh basil is perfect in its simplicity. Served on baguettes.
3. Ginger-Mascarpone Icebox Cake - make this the day before - it's a cheesecake with an unusual twist. The ginger will be good for the pregnant women - good for nauseous
It is always nice to see veggie trays along with finger sandwiches. Those are pretty standard.
But you can also cut up cheese or set up a nice cheese tray with diffrent types of cheeses and maybe some meat.
Arrange crackers/bread on another platter this will look nice as well.
Keep it simple so you don't become over worried about the food and aren't able to enjoy your guests! Simple is more Elegant!What should I serve at book club?
I think you should bake banana bread, bring in some bananas, maybe some banana cream. Have a Banana Bonanza Book club!!! if someone doesn't like bananas, choose a different fruit! and always bring in a healthy cereal or oatmeal. I hope this helps, and I hope it get chose for the best answer!!!
C YA!!!!! OH!! drinks... bring in some Tropicana or milk. Some kidda drink, that will keep them healthy and in shape.
Make cucumber sandwiches. Have some crackers, cheese and meat available. You could also try making some devilled eggs. Olives and pickles are good too.What should I serve at book club?
Finger sandwiches, pigs in a blanket, Rolled ham and cheese slices, meatballs in sauce, chilli.. You could make punch, one spiked and one plain.
Is Breathing Lessons the book set in Baltimore? If so, how about Baltimore food? Crab cakes, a Lady Baltimore cake (white cake with fruit and nut filling, frosted with whipped cream.) Our book club has had fun trying to fit the food to the book we've read. There are six of us; we each bring something (appetizer, desserts, etc., with the hostess supplying the entree and beverages. We've done Chinese food for Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, Afghani food for The Bookseller of Kabul, etc, etc.
Don't you just love the mental stimulus of being in a book club? It
is the highlight of my month.
Finger sandwitched, tea, and petit fours.
Tea, whether cold or hot, biscotti or breakfast cookies, for the health aspect of it all go to whole foods, get little finger sandwiches, stay basic, salmon spread, with crackers, I say tea and biscotti
Here are a few appetizers

Definitely finger-type foods that aren't greasy. Fruit/veggie trays are always good. Maybe cheese and crackers partnered up with a good wine. Maybe some baby quiches you find in the freezer section.
Sangria is a fun alcoholic drink. Or look up some of the girly cocktails. Maybe mimosas (OJ and champagne) or bellinis (champagne and peach schnaups, often with pureed frozen peaches - use sparking grape juice for a non-alcoholic version)
Scones and tea sandwiches are classic. (Cucumber sandwiches, beet and soft cheese, ham, PBJ)
Cookies maybe. Crab rangoons. Pigs in blankets ( I love those guys).

Good games and activities for a book club (reading The Alchemist)?
I lead a book club and we are currently reading The Alchemist. Not everyone has started the book yet, but I was hoping I could find some games or activities for everyone in the group. Are there any that you know, or any good websites to find them? ThanksGood games and activities for a book club (reading The Alchemist)?
On you tube there is a very interesting interview of Will Smith praising the Alchemist. Preview it first and judge if your club will like it. I found it very enlightening
