Read 'Saving Chupie' by Amparo Ortiz and join us for an in-person discussion about the book where snacks and refreshments will be served. For ages 8 - 12.

Violeta Rubio only has one goal in mind for her first-ever trip to Puerto Rico: help Abuelita reopen her beloved
restaurant, La Casita. After the destruction wrought by Huracán Maria, La Casita needs all the help it can get. The
only problem is that Violeta’s whole family thinks they can do it without her. Now Violeta doesn’t have anyone to
hang out with or anything to do. But when best friend duo Diego and Lorena need help capturing the rumored
chupacabra, Violeta sees her chance to change all that. What she isn’t expecting is to run straight into the beast!

Parents and guardians: Food will be served. A list of ingredients will be available.

About the branch

Las Virgenes Library was founded in 1916 and was located for a brief period, at the Las Virgenes Grammar School. The library then moved to Liberty School which was one of four schools in the area. Shortly after 1920, the school and the library moved to Chesebro Road. The library was managed during that time by Mrs. Wright. Later, the library moved to the Cornell School.

The library moved again on December 8, 1970 into a 7,500 square foot storefront facility located on 29130 Roadside Drive.

On October, 27, 2001 the library became the "Agoura Hills" Library moving to a brand new 17,772 square foot facility at 29901 Ladyface Court. The library is part of the City Hall Civic Center.
