The Library has a challenge for you!
And it doesn't involve reading bad poetry,
unless you really want it to.
Accept the challenge to read books based on their cover color! This is a completely random idea, I know!!

Fill out a book form after each book & submit to Library Personnel, who will initial your master form & reward you with a Starburst candy. When you've Read the Rainbow, you'll earn a bag of skittles (not a snack size, either!). Other prizes may be available for those reading above and beyond the rainbow.
Deadline: Wednesday, December 10th, 3:20 PM.
SOUTH: 25 Book Challenge!!
Fill out a book form after each book & submit to Library Personnel, who will initial your master form.
Complete the challenge = $20 Barnes & Noble gift card. Read more books over the first 25 than all other registered competitors = your B & N gift card will be $40 (instead of $20).
Deadline: Wednesday, December 10th, 3:30 PM.
My dog tried to eat my library book!

The Big Ugly Truth About Checking Out Library Books
**You also won't be allowed to participate in the COOL ACTIVITIES above.**
And that is the complete Sad-News-Bears TRUTH of the matter. Straight from the Librarian's mouth and through her keyboard to your eyes and your mind.
Please, please, please: if this applies to you, get it taken care of ASAP so all students have access to all the books all the time. (And you can be part of the cool stuff, too!)

Some things you should know about the Library Aide . . .
I love the world of books. You can time-travel to new lands and eras. Have adventures with dragons, dogs, cats, magical worlds full of excitement. But, most of all I like reading about people. The books place me in their shoes of how they lived, survived and how had it help them learn to be strong from what they endured.
I not only like to read but I like to cook, camp out and sit around a campfire with family and friends.
