Fantastic Summer!!!

Summer at MJCPL has been fantastic!!! We had great programs thanks to all of you who participated.

A total of 128 fifth through ninth graders participated in the summer reading club. I hope you are sitting down for this…. a total of 134,676 pages were read. That’s a lot of books!!!

Creature feature solution!

Thirteen people completed the Creature Feature summer reading club and figured out the creatures. Good Job to those thirteen who saw it through to the end. Our featured creatures were the aye-aye, the honeybee, the loggerhead turtle, the echidna and the Jesus Christ lizard aka basalisk lizard. Congratulations to Christina Bashem for winning the grand prize, two tickets to Newport Aquarium.

Thanks Elaine Alphin!

A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU TO AUTHOR, ELAINE ALPHIN. Elaine joined us at Pizza and Pages on July 14th to discuss her book Counterfeit Son. The opportunity to discuss such a moving book with the author was one that can not be forgotten. Thanks Elaine. (Be sure to check out Elaine’s newest book – The Perfect Shot)

Thanks again to the businesses, organizations and individuals who made this a memorable summer. If you have any comments or suggestions for young adult summer reading 2007, please email me.
