Great Scavenger Hunt Remodeled

If you were a part of the Great Scavenger Hunt hosted by Kay Cassidy we have some not so great news.  The Hunt is no longer being run as a year round program.  Due to funding the Hunt is now going to be run only during the summer months.  This change will happen April first - so if you're in the middle of a book hurry and finish.  The library will still be supporting the Hunt during the summer months.  And YES Hunt reading will count towards the library's summer reading program.  If you would like more information please visit Miss Renee at the library.

Book Talk

Michale Vey: the Prisoner of Cell 25
by Richard Paul Evans
Michael is special and it has nothing to do with his Tourette's Syndrome.  He's electric and when he meets Taylor he discovers he's not the only one.  Soon he and Taylor are fighting for their lives and the world from those who accidentally created them.  This book is action packed.  I couldn't put it down.  Definitely a must read!
