Big Nate in A Class by Himself

Lincoln Peirce has done it! I didn't know how anyone could come close to Wimpy Kid but I think he has done it with Big Nate! Even Jeff Kinney, author of Wimpy Kid says, "Big Nate is funny, big time." And I agree! Big Nate is laugh-out-loud funny. It is reminiscent of Wimpy Kid with the clever line drawings and humor. I have FINALLY found a book that I can say with assurity, "IF you like Wimpy Kid, you will like this one too!!" Don't miss Big Nate - or his secret code throughout the book!

Watch an interview with Lincoln Peirce here of visit the website HERE.

Scared

Tom Davis stands out to me as an author - he challenged me greatly with Fields of the Fatherless and now, with his fiction debut, Scared, I am challenged again. Scared is the story of a reporter sent to Africa to capture photos of the AIDS crisis. He travels thinking it is just another job, but what he finds when he gets there changes his life forever. It is not an easy read - your heart breaks for these children trapped in a country that is torn by AIDS and poverty. If you are touched and want to help visit ScaredtheBook or Hope Chest make a difference.
