The South Creek Book Club meets once a month on a select Tuesday to discuss a new book! For ages 18 and up.
March's selection is: "The World That We Knew" by Alice Hoffman.
"In Berlin, at the time when the world changed, Hanni Kohn knows she must send her daughter away to save her from the Nazi regime. She finds her way to a renowned rabbi, whose daughter, Ettie, who offers hope of salvation when she creates a mystical Jewish creature who is sworn to protect Lea. Once Ava is brought to life, she and Lea and Ettie become entwined, their paths fated to cross, their fortunes linked. Lea and Ava travel from Paris to a convent in western France known for its silver roses; from a school in a mountaintop village where three thousand Jews were saved. Meanwhile, Ettie is in hiding, waiting to become the fighter she's destined to be."

South Creek Branch is located at the intersection of Deerfield Boulevard and Balcombe Road east of South Orange Blossom Trail. Serving communities including Deerfield, Ginger Mill, Hunters Creek, Pepper Mill, South Chase and Whisper Lakes, South Creek is the southernmost branch in Orange County.
In October of 2002, South Creek Branch replaced the South Orange Branch which had been located in the Waterbridge Down Shopping Center since 1992. With the completion of South Creek, south Orange County now has a light and bright facility with state-of-the-art technology and services including, 25 public computers, self-checkout, and technology classes in English and Spanish. This facility was funded by the Orange County Library District and a Florida Library Construction Grant.
A special feature at South Creek is the sculpture “Bonsai Study IV” by local artist Larry Jones. The piece won “Best in Show” at the 2001 Fiesta in the Park. The Fiesta Committee purchased the sculpture and donated it to the library.
