Big Nate: In a Class by Himself (Hardcover)
$12.99
ISBN-13: 9780061944345Availability: On Our Shelves Now
Published: HarperCollins, 04/01/2010
Some local valley kids have dedicated themselves to making sure their peers know what's hot (and what's not) by reading new books ahead of time and giving us the scoop.
Here's one such sneak peek courtesy of Cade Cyphers, age 9:
Big Nate: In a Class by Himself - "One morning, Nate gets a fortune cookie from his friend Francis. Ever since then, Nate has been trying to "surpass all others" as the fortune cookie told him he would. But Nate has been working too hard at that, and at the end of the day he ends up in the detention room with seven detentions. The author of this book definitely has some imagination. I'd give this book 5-stars! I like this one even more than Diary of Wimpy Kid!"

No one else can see the evil fairies that rouse Tanya from her sleep, torturing her at the slightest mention of their existence, but they are as real to the 13-year-old as anything she's ever known. She cannot rid herself of them, nor can she ignore them. But it is her insistence on responding to them that has her banished to her grandmother's secluded countryside manor.
There is much to explore and to fear in the woods surrounding the estate. But the forest isn't the only source of dark secrets, and Tanya soon finds herself entangled in a mystery that could trap her in the fairy realm forever. Middle grade kids will love this book!

Different Learners with Jane Healy
Mon, 04/05/2010 - 6:00pm
Mon, 04/05/2010 - 8:00pm
About the Program:
Learning abilities—and differences—result from a complex interaction of genetics, brain development, and a child’s experiences at home and school. We will explore this “nature-nurture” interaction in some of the variations—such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autistic spectrum disorders--which cause problems with academic, emotional, and social learning. Parents and teachers will learn specific strategies for creating successful learning environments to benefit all children. Child Care Provided

In The BLUES Go Birding Across America children will laugh as they follow the travels of Bing, Lulu, Uno, Eggbert, and Sammi while they discover an amazing variety of birds. This book is an imaginative travelogue as well as a young person’s first bird book!
