1,001 kids and teens have registered to read in our Summer
Reading Club. There are only a few
days left to sign-up.
Summer Reading Club
time-sheets are due by Saturday, July 24th.
My current book
recommendation for Middle & High School readers is The
Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins http://www.suzannecollinsbooks.com
I just finished the first
book and will read Catching Fire this weekend. Mockingjay,
the third book in this series, is to be released August 24th. A
motion picture is in the works!
"The
Hunger Games is as close to perfect an adventure novel as I've ever read. I
could not put it down. Collins has transformed the ancient Labyrinth myth into
a terrifyingly believable tale of future America. Readers will be hungry for
more. --Rick Riordan, author of The Percy Jackson Series and The 39 Clues

Recommended Reading for
Middle and High School students:
The Cedartown Library has
a display of Middle School and High School Recommended Reading from PSD this
summer. Please be sure to get your student reading these soon. We have a
limited supply of titles available and expect a lot of teens to place requests
on these books. We recently added more titles to our display thanks to a
reading club donation from the Cedartown Junior Service League. Check it out!
