FEATURED SERIES CORNER
Wayside School

After more than two decades since the release of the third book in the Wayside School series, Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger, the author, Louis Sachar, found inspiration to write, Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom.  Seems everyone in Mrs. Jewl’s class is preparing for the Ultimate Test, but a mysterious cloud looms over them.  You’ll have to find this book on your library’s shelf to read what happens. This new book releases on March 3, 2020.

MY FAVORITE THINGS

It is hard to believe we are quickly coming up to the end of the year.  Thanksgiving is right around the corner and Christmas will be right behind.  Are you excited for the holidays?  For me, it is a time to get together with family and spend time with friends.  But also, I like to take time for myself and get lost in a book.  There are SOOOO many new books coming out as the year closes and a lot of new ones to read next year.  I hope you have a great holiday season and a very happy new year.  See ya in 2020!
