Check out http://the39clues.scholastic.com/
Scholastic is publishing a series of 10 books written by famous authors, the first one titled "Maze of Bones" by Rick Riordan (author of the popular Percy Jackson series). There will be cards with each book that have hints to track down the 39 clues. Learn more about this series by coming to the Children's Room on Tuesday, September 9th at 7 PM. We will raffle a pack of cards and a copy of the first book and a backpack. You could be the lucky winner! Open to kids between the ages of 8 and 11. Please call to sign up.

I'm excited to come to Shewsbury! But does this blog post have the right times? Aren't I supposed to speak from 11-12, and then we eat from 12-1, and then we have the writing workshop from 1-2?
