Welcome Back! October book: Loot by Jude Watson

We had a great start to the new school year -- we created a banner featuring flags for each member.  It is now hanging in the Masonville Library's Teen Annex.  We still have a spot for two more Mother-Daughter pairs so if you know of anyone interested, they can contact staff at 519-660-4646.

We will meet Wednesday, October 15, 7-8:30 pm to discuss Jude Watson's Loot: How to Steal a Fortune.  Our craft activity will definitely be jewelry heist inspired!  Hmm, wonder what snack might be appropriate...

You can check out Jude Watson's blog here: http://judewatsonbooks.com/loot/

Look forward to discussing this fast-paced book with you all.  I loved all of Alfie's quotes of wisdom:
Never trust a guy who says “Trust me.”
If there’s no way out, find a way.
If people were meant to look back, they’d be owls.
Do it any way you want, but don’t do it stupid.
No matter how good you are, kid, remember this: Sometimes you get caught.

See you next month!
