Here are a few books I've read this summer that I think would be good additions to the Halliwell library collection:*
Fangbone! Third-Grade Barbarian by Michael Rex: Eastwood Elementary has
a new student, and he's nothing like the other kids in 3G. Fangbone is a
barbarian warrior from another world! And he's been charged with the
task of keeping a deadly weapon from Skullbania's vilest villain,
Venomous Drool. Can Fangbone's new classmates team up to help him
triumph over hound-snakes, lava-ferrets, and his first pop quiz?
Remarkable by Lizzie K. Foley: In the mountain
town of Remarkable, everyone is extraordinarily talented,
extraordinarily gifted, or just plain extraordinary. Everyone, that is,
except Jane Doe, the most average ten-year-old who ever lived. But
everything changes when the mischievous, downright criminal Grimlet
twins enroll in Jane's school and a strange pirate captain appears in
town. Thus begins a series of adventures that put some of
Remarkable's most infamous inhabitants and their long-held secrets in
danger. It's up to Jane, in her own modest style, to come to the rescue
and prove that she is capable of some rather exceptional things.
The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner's Dilemma by Trenton Lee Stewart: Join the Mysterious Benedict Society as Reynie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance embark on a daring new adventure that threatens to force them apart from their families, friends, and even each other. When an unexplained blackout engulfs Stonetown, the foursome must unravel clues relating to a nefarious new plot, while their search for answers brings them closer to danger than ever before. Filled with page-turning action and mind-bending brain teasers, this wildly inventive journey is sure to delight.
