New Books

During the month of March, our library added 89 new books to our collection.  This week in K-5 we read some of our most notable new picture books.  The kids were excited to know that we've added new books to our collection and really enjoyed hearing the new books.

Most notable was The Dark by Lemony Snicket (author of the Series of Unfortunate Events series) and illustrated by two time Caldecott honoree Jon Klaussen.  It was one that I thought would win either the Caldecott award or the Newbery award last year when it was published, and I was SHOCKED to see that it was not included on either list.  I shared it with 3-5, and they agreed that it was a very interesting read.
