Doss Library

Hi Gang- Please check out the link to ReadKiddoRead on the right. This site may be just the help if you are struggling to find a good book. Don't forget to ask your friends, teachers and librarians for help too! By now, everyone should have their APL card so you now have two great resources for free books. If you find a great title or series, let me know and I will put it on my book order (if it's not already there). I was excited to see that the link to Anita Silveys's "Book of the Week: discusses Jack Gantos' book Joey Pigza Swallowed the Key. I recommended this title to a teacher just this week. Happy reading!

I just wanted to take a moment to give Kim Belew a shout out for organizing a great birthday book club week!!! The library has been busy with students choosing their books and getting them book-plated. All participants are checking out these new books and we are capturing the moment with a photo op at the door. It is so exciting to see these books in the hands of the Doss owls! I am so grateful to Kim and to all of the wonderful PTA volunteers who make the birthday book club a huge success. I could not do it without you! Thank you!!!

I just saw on Barnes & Noble's website that this book by Pseudonymous Bosch is in the Nook spotlight section for 99 cents. I am currently reading this title and am enjoying it! Of course, you can check it out at the Doss library, but I know that some of you have a Nook and it seems like a good deal to me!

Ironically, I received the following information in an email from BookPeople just this week and have been meaning to share with you...

The author, image unknown.

The Name of This Camp is SECRET

Saturday, October 1 - Sunday, October 2nd
10am - 3pm

Pseudonymous Bosch

The author Pseudonymous Bosch is in danger - most likely a future kidnapping victim. We (you campers) have to find him (Pseudonymous Bosch) before they (the villains) can find him and do something horrible, like take his sunglasses and sell them on eBay for $10 million dollars, or reveal the author's true identity. We'll have to dodge shadowy pseudo-mystical groups and spies of all stripes to foil the villains' plans and preserve what dignity the author has left.


Are you smart enough?

"YES!"

Are you tough enough?

"YES!"

Are you humble enough?

"Ohmygosh, YES!!!"



Saturday, October 1st to Sunday, October 2nd, 2011 at BookPeople.

Pseudonymous Bosch will be involved, but don't tell any of the villains. Registration is required.
