Books

September 13th, 6pm
Writer's Club/Book Club Meeting

This group is for teens in grades 6th-12th that enjoy talking about books or enjoy creative writing.  Join us each month for pizza as we talk about what we have read since the last meeting and discuss things we are working on (and maybe get some fresh ideas).  For more information, please call 205.439.5512 or email skinner.lori@yahoo.com.

Teen Book Pick of the Month

I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore
Nine of us came here. We look like you.  We talk like you.  But we are not you.  We can do things you dream of doing.  We have powers you dream of having.  We are stronger and faster than anything you have ever seen.  We are  the superheroes you worship in movies and comic books - but we are real. Our plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight them. But they found us and started hunting us first.  Now all of us are running.  Spending our lives in shadows, in places where no one would look, blending in.  We have lived among you without you knowing.  But they know.  They caught Number One in Malaysia.  Number Two in England.  And Number Three in Kenya.  They killed them all.  I am Number Four.  I am next.  (From Product Description.  *Librarian's Note:  This book has a huge amount of buzz and the movie will be released early next year.)
