Weekly Spotlight




Did you love the Harry Potter books? Have you read everything by Rick Riordan and are anxiously awaiting more? Then here's a new series for you - John Stephen's The Books of Beginning. The first book, The Emerald Atlas, just came out this fall and it is definitely worth a read. It has a perfect blend of magic, suspense, and adventure and will keep you on your toes. I promise, once you start this book, you won't be able to put it down!

For those of you who like listening to books, The Emerald Atlas is read by the same man (Jim Dale) who did the Harry Potter books. If you don't know who Jim Dale is, believe me, listening to anything he reads is a real treat.
