To make lighter work, partner up with a friend, then send out invitations that include the title of the first book (ask your librarian for a recommendation) and a weekly time to meet. A bookmark, with extra spaces where the book titles will go, makes the perfect invitation. Before the club meeting, all the kids read the same book (or specified chapters), then come together for snacks and discussion. To get things started, the host child might want to write up a list of five discussion questions (What was your favorite part? Who was the best character?). Or, if the readers are little, you can read aloud while they listen or draw along to the story. If the kids like, you might consider choosing a loose theme for the books--for example, all winter stories, or all summery stories, or books from everyone's favorite series of the moment.
