Recommended Reads:
Peace by Wendy Anderson Halperin. The School Library Journal said "A beautiful book with rich watercolor artwork. Most of the paintings are spreads in a nontraditional layout, with sections sometimes divided into shapes by the meandering text. The book is about peace and how it can be achieved: in the world, in the country, in the city, in one's school, and within oneself. Many quotes from various people are included, with a running narrative on each page, beginning with "For there to be peace in the world...," on the first page, followed by "...there must be peace in nations" on the next. Each spread incorporates the words of others to support the running circular narrative." (Everyone section)
Mr. Tiger Goes Wild by Peter Brown. Mr. Tiger is tired of being like everyone else. Can the citizens in his town learn to accept change or will Mr. Tiger be on his own? (Everyone Section)
The Wig in the Window by Kristen Kittscher. Sophie and Grace are over-the-top can't ignore it neighborhood spies. On one of their spying escapades the stumble across a bizarre scene at their guidance counselors home. Sophie and Grace are bound and determined to find out what happened at Dr. Awkward's home. (Chapter book section)

Fortunately, the Milk by Skottie Young - A crazy story unfolds after a father dashes out at breakfast to buy milk for his kids cereal and is abducted by aliens and an adventure where the milk he has purchased plays a significant role.
Ghost Hawk by Margaret K. McElderry - The story begins around 1620, when Little Hawk is nearing proving time to become a man in his Wampanoag tribe. One winter's morning, he is sent out into the woods alone, armed only with a bow and arrows, a tomahawk, and a knife. He must try to survive for three moons before returning to his family. When he does, he is devastated to find that everyone except his grandmother has died of smallpox. He, along with his grandmother and one of his friends, finds shelter with another tribe, and as they settle in he has his first encounter with local Pilgrims. Little Hawk begins a friendship with a white boy named John Wakely that will change both of their lives forever. –Necia Blundy, formerly at Marlborough Public Library, MAa(c) Copyright 2013.
