Where's Wally Week starts Monday

This year it is the 30th birthday of Where's Wally and to celebrate we are having a Where's Wally Week next week.  There will be activities in the library all week, including colouring, a word find and crossword, and a scavenger hunt to find Wally and his friends. You might even see Wally walking around the school.

There will be Where's Wally books available to buy for $10 each (cash only).  If you would like to buy one please bring your money to the library.  There are 6 different books to choose from.

We are also running a 'Find Wally in Christchurch' competition.  There will be a different photo posted on the blog each day next week of Wally in a different place in Christchurch.  All you have to do is name where in Christchurch you think Wally is and you're in the draw.  You can enter each day and every correct guess gets you a chance to win some Where's Wally prizes.

Here come the Miniwings!

Miniwings is a fantastic new series by Sally Sutton and Kirsten Richards. The series is about two sisters, Clara and Sophia, and the mischievous little Miniwings (think My Little Pony toys that come alive whenever it’s just them and the girls).  There is Moonlight (a unicorn who loves his food), Glitterwing (who rains glitter when she flaps her huge, sparkly wings), Whizz (a fast little pony who loves playing tricks), Comet (a show-jumping and dressage star who hates losing), Firestorm (who is brave and a little bossy) and Oceana (who is loves the water and is very messy).  They love to have fun and play tricks so they are always getting Clara and Sophia in to trouble.

Glitterwing’s Book Week Blunder is about Clara and Sophia getting ready for Book Week at their school.  They meet their favourite author and try to make their book character costumes, with a little help from the Miniwings.

 In Whizz’s Internet Oopsie, the Miniwings discover the internet and the marvels of shopping online.  When they are left at home while the girls go to school the Miniwings find Mum’s credit card and go shopping.  When deliveries start turning up on their doorstep Clara and Sophia have to figure out how to sort out the mess, especially when one of their surprise packages is a goat.

We have Glitterwing's Book Week Blunder in the library now and there will be more books to follow.

The Bad Guys are back!

The Bad Guys series by Aaron Blabey is one of my favourite series.  The adventures of Mr Wolf, Mr Shark, Mr Piranha, Mr Snake and Legs make me crack up every time I read them.

The new book in the series, Episode 5: Intergalactic Gas is out now and we have 2 copies in the library.  In this book the gang have to steal...I mean borrow a rocket and get to the moon to destroy Dr Marmalade's Cute-Zilla Ray.  When you've got a piranha, who has had too many burritos, stuck in a space suit with Mr Wolf you just know things aren't going to end well.

If you haven't read any of the Bad Guys books you are missing out on some serious laughs.  Check out this book trailer for the series:
