Some more fantastic new books for you to read







Welcome back to school :)

It is great to see the book bags coming into the library, this will keep the books looking great. Please remember to bring them each time you come to the library.

We have lots of exciting new books for browsing, titles for everyone. They will be available for issue in a week. You can reserve the book- ask at the desk. Check out the books below.
I read four of these over the holidays, I enjoyed them all and they are all very different stories!

FAB book cover for a laptop!


The new cover for Carol's Macbook Pro has arrived! It's a wonderful cover, created by author and illustrator
Colin Thompson. Sever
al of his designs are available from gelaskins and you can use them to cover your ipod or computer.


Carol loves this particular cover because it shows how the imagination can run wild with a good book. If you click on the cover and look more closely, you will see that many of the books have titles that aren't quite right... Can you tell what is wrong with them? How about leaving a comment with the ones you discover. (Here's an example: 'War and Peas' should be 'War and Peace'.


Colin has written some wonderful books and picture books. Why don't you look for some of his titles in our own library? See if you enjoy his illustrations as much as Carol does!
