Grab & Go Book Club (K-2) Owen Foote Frontiersman (5 left)
Read along together at home and talk about your experience with the included discussion questions and activities! Thanks to the generosity of his neighbor Mrs. Gold, who owns the woods near Owen's house, Owen and his best friend Joseph have a great treehouse fort, complete with a Weapons Wall (seven sharp sticks) and an Art Wall (featuring the quieter Joseph's nature poem). But now Mrs. Gold's odious grandsons Jake and Spencer have come to visit and have taken over the fort, intending to wreck it. As Owen and Joseph plot to regain their "kingdom," all the strengths of this series come to the fore: characters with an appealingly loyal friendship, a good balance of narrative and dialogue, and an honestly childlike sense of the way the world works. This is a great family summer read-aloud!Reserve this kit:

Grab & Go Book Club (Grades 6-12) - The New Policeman (3 left)
Read along together at home and talk about your experience with the included discussion questions and activities! In this book, everyone in Kinvara is conscious that time is flying past, faster and faster - to such an extent that when JJ asks his mother what she would like as a birthday present she ask for more time. JJ dismisses this as mere wishful thinking, an impossibility, for who know where the time goes? The Liddys have been musicians for generations and JJ is no exception but what he discovers is that a shadow from the past hangs over their family -did his great-grandfather murder the village priest? When he sets out to buy his mother time, he discovers the fate of a flute which will provide the key to both problems - it is the vital clue. He makes the transition to Tir na n'Og, the land of eternal youth, where the fairy people are also having a problem with time and it falls to his lot to locate the leak between the two parallel worlds. JJ finds where time goes!Reserve this kit:
