Graphic Novels


Alright, I have to admit that I really don't like graphic novels. I don't see the appeal to them at all. However, I do keep trying. I have finally found a decent one that I can recommend to others...Coraline by Neil Gaiman. The story was pretty good and the illustrations were decent and represented the story well. So, go ahead and give it a read!


This being said about graphic novels, the department is fortunate to have Jen and Katie who love graphic novels and can give you lots of good recommendations.

Rain Rain Go Away

We had such nice weather last week and now it is raining. Hopefuly it won't keep up because the library has storytime at Shuster Park on Sundays at 3:30.

If I Stay


I read the most incredible book the other day. Warning: You will cry!!

Mia takes a family ride in the car and ends up in a car crash. She must make a choice between staying or leaving her body. The book jumps between real life and past memories. If I stay sends a great message about living every day to its fullest.

Rainy Days

I don't know about you, but I really don't like rainy days...especially 3 days of it! However, I still see rainy days as the best days for sitting down and colouring. I used to sit and colour for hours when I was younger on days like these. There are tons of free colouring pages available on the web. Just Google using the search terms : free coloring pages
