BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS: ADVENTURES!
Tashi - all titles!
Please visit the Tashi series for Y1-3 over the summer, fantastic adventures with a little suspense thrown in for those learning to read early chapter books.
Mal and Chad Graphic Novel Series - Y3-4
by Stephen McCranie - excellent series that keeps readers turning the pages!
House of Secrets - fantasy Y5-6
by Chris Columbus and Ned Vizzini - excellent fantasy with adventure. Non-stop action throughout.
BOOK EXCHANGE IN THE LIBRARY!
June Family Project: Do your children have too many books on their shelves? Would you like to make room for new ones? Perhaps take time with your children to think about clearing out books they have grown out of or no longer enjoy, send your children to the library with the books to swap them! Since children cannot borrow books the last two weeks we are in session- June 17-18th, they choose new-to-them books!
THANK YOU PARENTS!
A special thank you goes out to all the parents who set up their parent library account and borrowed books this year! We love when you borrow books too! For those unaware: You can borrow 10 books at a time for 4 weeks at a time from Bradbury Library with your parent account.
Thanks for reading!
