Reading to Win Prizes

Looking for something to do this week? Here are some suggestions:

Geek out and get messy at the Fair Grove Branch Library's "Messy Science Experiments in the Park" on Saturday, June 15 from 1-5 p.m. Call 759-2637 to register.

More the artistic type? Head over to the Library Station on Friday, June 14 at 6 p.m. for "Modern Art for Teens." If photography is your thing, join us on the patio at the Library Center on Saturday, June 15 at 2 p.m., where we will provide the chalk, and you provide the inspiration -- then bring your chalk art to life with photography!

Or would you rather just sit back and watch a movie? "Holes" will be showing at the Brentwood Branch on Saturday, June 15 at 1 p.m. and you can catch "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" 3 p.m. on June 18 at the Republic Branch Library.

If you like the Middle School book series then for sure you will like this book. Like all the other books in its series it is very funny. You can't turn a page without laughing. Georgia puts her point of view out. Her take on Rafe, her mom, and her life. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants an awesome read. This book was AMAZING!!!!   Get it from the Library

Baby cats can fit in the palm of your hand. Most people think you feed kittens milk but they're actually lactose intolerant. I learned a lot about cats. They can be really good pets. When u go to a shelter to get a cat they ask questions to make sure you know enough about them to take care of them. Don't worry if they hide under your bed. They're just getting used to their new surroundings. Just make sure they have food water and a few toys.

I loved the second book of the Mortal Instruments series. It continues the wonderful story and deepens the plot. Very suspenseful. All of the characters are so well developed and interesting that this book was also a page turner.  Get it from the Library
