Free PDF + editable BoboCreate template

How to Edit and Print Free Book Club Discussion Cards

The free four-page Book Club Meeting Starter gives a group one complete 30-minute meeting. Its editable .bobo file opens in BoboCreate Desktop; the PDF works immediately if you do not need edits.

Both downloads are the free edition. The .bobo file opens in BoboCreate Desktop.

The editable file imports in BoboCreate Free 0.3.19 or later. It uses one of Free's three design places, and its own artwork does not count toward your three uploaded images. Older versions of the app need BoboCreate activated to import it, so update BoboCreate first.

Discussion cards 1 to 6 with codes, depth tags and follow-up questions

The cards ask about a book without quoting or copying it, and each one shows whether it needs the reading or is spoiler-safe.

Every text field is editable; check your page previews after changing a prompt.

What the free template includes

A 30-minute meeting plan
A spoiler line selector and ground rules
Twelve discussion cards with follow-ups
Next-meeting fields

Open the editable starter

Download the free .bobo and import it into BoboCreate Desktop. It is one four-page design with two pictures (the cover still life and a small book stack), so it uses one of the Free plan’s three design places.

Make the cards fit your book

You can change a question or add your book’s title. Avoid long copied passages on the cards. Keep the follow-up line so the host has a way to ask for evidence or a second view.

Print selectively

Print US Letter at Actual Size or 100%. One copy of the plan and cards is enough for the host. The premium kit is a separate product with three first meetings, ballots and thirty cards; the free edition works on its own.
