Rodney Kids into Summer Reading

The Rodney Libraries two summer reading programmes, Dive into Books and Library Monopoly, are both proving really popular with children this summer. Some libraries are full with people on waiting lists.

A reminder that the second checkins at your local library should be done before Christmas (unless you have contacted us to make other arrangements). So only a couple of days left to do this. We know it is a busy time of the year, so give us a call if you want to keep your place.

With the first check-ins for Library Monopoly, we are starting to receive our first reviews. Here are a couple that we have received at Warkworth.

Summer thought Nancy Drew - Sleepover Sleuths was awesome and gave it five stars. Summer says it is an "exciting, fantastic, fun mystery book about friendship, helping people, sleepovers and owning up to friends".

Miles called Zac Power - Volcanic Panic "energizing" which I thought was a stunning word to use in a book review. His favourite bit was when Zac saw a glowing rock outside his classroom window and he went to look at it. The rock cracked open to reveal a mission disc. The disc told him details of his next mission. Miles likes how the story was set out, particularly the ending and fave it four stars.
