Another Year...Many Adventures!

I love this time of year with the brilliant fall colors, the cool crisp hint of autumn in the air, and the excitement of another school year! As summer slowly comes to a close we turn our focus to books, both for learning and for enjoyment! The many adventures, places, and people we meet in books are waiting for us to 'jump' in and join the excitement in progress!
The latest book I am reading is THE CANDY SHOP WAR by Brandon Mull. Brandon Mull is the author of the FABLEHAVEN series starring Seth and Kendra in their ongoing adventures at the mysterious refuge for mythical and magical creatures. THE CANDY SHOP WAR is not part of that series but is a very captivating book following the adventures, choices, and consequences experienced by Nate, Summer, Trevor, and Pigeon (Paul's nickname); four friends who must make difficult choices while searching for a much sought after magical treasure! I am thoroughly enjoying this story and hope that Mr. Mull continues this with other sequels.
What are some great adventures you have enjoyed through books? I would love to hear about them!
I plan on holding several 'Family Event' nights, with the support and help of our P.T.A., this year! Please check back to see what is coming up!
We will be going on a 'book-buying' trip to Barnes and Noble soon which means 'oodles and oodles' of new adventures will soon be waiting for you to check them out!
