![]() A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket is a good book series for children around the age of 8-10 years. It has a lot of mixed feelings of sad, happy and nervous. While being enjoyable reads, I wouldn't recommend it for children under 7 years old. It will make you feel like you're running from Count Olaf with the Baudelaire children because of its a amazing descriptive writing. I would give it a 4.5 star rating. Reviewed by Audrey This week in the library check out the student librarian's favourite books. They are a bunch of diverse readers with everything from picture books and novels to graphic novels (the fav's of the entire school at the moment are the Dog Man series by Dav Pilkey and the Sisters series by Raina Telgemeier).
All of these books are ready to be issued and taken home to read.

Captain Underpants and the Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman by Dav Pilkey4.8 STARS ![]() Captain Underpants is a series of funny comics written and illustrated by Dav Pilkey. This is a book about a wicked wedgie woman. That woman tried to attack George and Harold but was no match for Captain Underpants, our wacky and funny hero. This is a very good book for new readers because it has simple words and sentences. It also has drawings which makes it fun to read! By Nick, Student Librarian PSHH. HO. It's me bookworm.
