Come celebrate Teen Read Week, LOL @ Your Library! Regardless of what you may have heard, teens are still reading, and this week we celebrate that! The library media center has some great new books, including: What My Girlfriend Doesn't Know by Sonya Sones, the new Tolkien The Children of Hurin, Blue Bloods a new vampire series by Melissa De La Cruz, The Road by Cormac McCarthy, a series about cars, and craft books on knitting, beading, and scrapbooking.
During Teen Read Week, teens are invited to go online and vote for their favorite books in the annual Teens' Top Ten poll at www.ala.org/teenstopten. This is the only national list sponsored by the American Library Association and their Young Adult division YALSA that is nominated and voted on by teens.
During Teen Read Week, the Environmental Academy and our Reading Coach sponsored an environmental literacy day with a guest speaker, Dr. Ellen Prager of the Aquarius Reef Project to speak to our students. An environmentally themed art show is currently displayed in the library media center.
