Week 9 in the Library - Pot Luck



This week we have a mish-mash of books for you to enjoy.  Most of them have been requested by you through the Book-a-Book-Book.

Here are just a few:

The Boy on Cinnamon Street by Phoebe Stone (Senior Fiction)

“A story about a wounded girl and the boy who won't give up on her.
7th grader Louise should be the captain of her school's gymnastics team - but she isn't. She's fun and cute and should have lots of friends - but she doesn't. And there's a dreamy boy who has a crush on her - but somehow they never connect. Louise has everything going for her - so what is it that's holding her back?
Phoebe Stone tells the winning story of the spring when 7th grader Louise Terrace wakes up, finds the courage to confront the painful family secret she's hiding from - and finally get the boy.”
(Barnes and Noble review)


Diary of a Wimpy Kid – Roderick Rules by Jeff Kinney (General Fiction)
Another copy of this popular book, so that we can reduce the reserve list on this title!


Jake’s Balloon Blast and Jake’s Great Game by Ken Spillman (Fun Reads)
Jake is a boy with BIG dreams, and this new series of books tells us how he goes about making his dreams a reality.
Watch out for more in this series coming into the Library.


Totally Twins: Musical Mayhem by Aleesah Darlison (General Fiction)
Totally Twins: Model Mania by Aleesah Darlison (General Fiction)
This is another new series to the library.  We have so many twins at Southwell, we thought they might be popular!
Persephone Pinchgut has started writing a secret diary as she wants to start trying things on her own, without twin sister Portia. 
Read Persephone’s most secret thoughts as she takes you on a journey through her world.


Bruiser by Gavin Bishop (Picture Book, NZ Author)
“Bruiser is a machine on a mission – ploughing up hillsides, trampling down paddocks and crushing rocks. Until, one day, a little chick and a nest fall right in front of him.  What will Bruiser do?”s
