Spot the Difference at our St. Theresa library / learning commons

We are in the process of giving our library a face lift!  Our transition to a learning commons will include new furniture (as you have seen some already last year), layout, design and technology.  See if you can spot the differences when you return in September!

spine-tingling read

If you have wronged another human being (or animal) The Messenger of Fear will find you.  He will assign blame and consequences to the evil-doer.  And, he is training his apprentice!  Very descriptive and creepy.

Try this book - Who I'm Not

Give this new book a try - Who I'm Not.  This is a quick, easy read about a troubled teenage boy on the run from the police.  He takes on the identity of a boy that has been missing for 3 years.  But, the plot thickens when he finds out that the missing boy's family is living a lie as well!  See if you can figure out who is telling the truth and who is lying.

Check out the Seven Series!

Have you read any of the series of books entitled Seven?  They are a set of 7 books written by 7 different authors, but they have a connection.  Each of the books tells the tale of 1 of 7 grandsons and the individual adventure he has been sent on by the shared deceased grandfather during his will reading.
