What Are You Reading?

I hope your summer has been full of fun outside and that you had the chance to get in some reading.  We have some great new books in the library right now.  There's Oliver and the Seawigs about a boy who goes an ocean adventure to rescue his Mom and Dad, but he must outsmart an evil captain and his army of sea monkeys.

You might want to try The Notebook of Doom Collection where Alex and his friends form the Super Secret Monster Patrol to protect the town from all kinds of monsters.

If you like I Survived then you can check out our newest I Survived book: The Destruction of Pompeii, AD 79.

Leave a comment to tell me the best thing you read this summer and one thing you hope we will do in library this year.

What's New?

I love reading new books over the summer and can't wait to have you check some of them out.  One excellent book that is nominated for the Great Stone Face Award is called "Wolf Hollow."  Lauren Wolk, the author, has written beautifully, but also has some terrifying secrets to reveal.  Most of all we wonder what decisions our main character will make when faced with bullying beyond her worst fears, a wanderer with an uncertain past and an injured friend.  Read the book to find out what kind of person she will decide to be when her quiet life is interrupted.



If you're looking for something more fun then try the Princess in Black and the Hungry Bunny Horde or the Princess in Black Takes a Vacation.  These two installments take the Princess on new adventures (even when what she really wants is a break from all these monsters).
 

For some goofy pals in a graphic novel pick up one of our new Bird and Squirrel graphic novels.
