Welcome back! Hope you had a great break and read some great books. We've got plenty of new titles ready for you. 
This semester, the SISD Librarian/Media Specialists are using Katherine Applegate's Wishtree and Kyo Maclear's The Wish Tree as our district reads. Come upstairs, check out the books, and tie your own wish onto our tree. 

What are your summer reading goals?

 
As I have several weddings to attend this summer, I thought my goals should reflect the tradition of "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue" that brides follow. 
 
Something Old-I'm going to read a Faulkner title that I've never read (probably Absalom, Absalom). 
 
Something New-I've got so many new books from TLA and Sync Audiobooks to choose from that I'm sure I'll read many new books! 
 
Something Borrowed-hmmm...does it count if I check it out of the school library?
 
Something Blue-I think this applies to cover and not mood, so I'm going to try Gayle Forman's If I Stay.
 
Ten students attended NTTBF and got to hear some incredible authors, including Cassandra Clare and Angie Thomas! 
The overall "Best Book to Movie" winner! Congrats to Ryan Hess, Kyden Luck, Trinity Pack, Sophia Ramos, Leslie Romero, Valeria Sena-Villarreal, Peyton Skinner, and Dallas Williams for picking this book from the beginning of the game. Come up to the library to claim your prize.
