this week

It's Monday, and we are all back from fall break! Hope you had a GREAT time, I know I did!

This week in the Media Center, we are reading... The Library Ghost by Carole Boston Weatherford. This book is illustrated by Lee White. It is getting closer to Halloween, so I thought The Library Ghost would be perfect!

Here's what the "blurb" says:

"The Library is this ghost's favorite haunt! Ms. Mims is stumped. Why is her library ransacked each night? She stands watch to find out. Sure enough, she discovers a Library Ghost, rummaging through book after book and interrogating familiar characters from the Billy Goats Gruff to Peter Pan in search of a missing piece of information. At last, Ms. Mims confronts the Ghost.
Will Ms. Mims be able to help the ghost find the information she seeks? Will the Library Ghost ever be at peace?"

Come visit the Media Center this week to find out!
