Sticks and Stones by Abby Cooper

It’s an awesome book for anyone that loves Wonder. Similar to Wonder it is about a girl with a disorder called HAC and it’s when words appear on her arms and legs when someone says them or she thinks of them. It’s also about how as she grows older she hears more good than bad.

Lost Crow Conspiracy by Rosalyn Eves

The sequel to Blood Rose Rebellion! Anna’s actions have brought changes to the world, a world that she thought would be more equal, and more grateful. Sometimes doing the right thing for the right reasons lands you in the center of things you hadn’t anticipated...

Pokemon Ultra Moon for Nintendo 3DS

Battle over 400 Pokémon in a new game that expands on Pokémon Moon. Explore the Alola region and venture into Ultra Wormholes to explore the Ultra Beasts’ home world, encounter every Legendary Pokémon, and uncover Ultra Megalopolis, a dark world where Necrozma has stolen the light.

TEEN ADVISORY BOARDGrades 6-12Calling all teens who are willing to help plan programs for their peers, step up social media interaction, and make the teen areas of the two branches the best they can be. This is a great opportunity for volunteer hours as well as learning skills that will be useful in the future. Oh, and we’re also pretty sure it will be fun…

BOOKS & BITESAges 10-16What’s the one thing that makes curling up with a good book even better? The smell of fresh baked cookies in the air!

Bring a book to read (pleasure or school reading; doesn’t matter to us!) and a blanket or pillow. We’ll relax, read a few chapters, and maybe swap favorite titles– or not! Tonight’s all about enjoying sugar and stories with other book-lovers. (P.S. If you’d like to bring a favorite cookie recipe to swap, that would be even sweeter!)
