We had a great Nene lunch discussion today about Patricia MacLachlan's book Waiting for the Magic. Everyone LOVED the book! Their favorite characters were the dogs (Grace, Bryn, Bitty & Neo) and the cat (Lula). If you are someone who... is imaginative likes animals is sad (someone you love has left your home) has a little brother or sister or likes magic...then you might like this book! Learn more about Patricia MacLachlan (by watching the video below) & look for her books in the library!
So many choices! I really LOVED the twists and turns in The Familiars' storyline, but The Strange Case of the Origami Yoda was hilarious! I'm just starting, You Will Call me Drog and can't put it down...good thing I'm not voting!
