I love the idea for this story. It is something everyone must have considered once in his or her life. What if my parent's weren't really mine? I also admired the lesson in this book. It showed that even if your parent's aren't yours biologically, it doesn't mean they can't love and care for you just as much. Something that disappointed me about The Face on the Milk Carton was the ending. They leave you hanging, and in order to figure out what happens to Janie, you have to read the sequel. I would've been happier with a longer story and no second book. On the whole though, I was very thrilled with the mystery and excitement of this novel.

The Story of Us is about a girl named Cricket and we follow the story in her point of view as she encounters many changes in her life all in the course of one week. She has graduated high school and is going to college in the fall. She's moving from her childhood home, due to her mother's 4th engagement to a man named Dan, and they are getting married in one week. She's also leaving behind her longtime boyfriend, who she doesn't want to break up with but really has no choice.

I must admit as soon as I began reading this story is bored me. I feel as if the author was trying to additionally add the situation of Cricket and her boyfriend, due to Cricket writing emails to him but it just bored me even more. I would have liked for her to have ended that relationship and maybe throw in some broken heart drama and another guy enter the scene but honestly those emails were boring me out of my mind.

Inventing Elliot is a book about a young boy ... called Elliot Sutton.
He was once known for being a nobody. Elliots' fed up with himself and so as he moves to a new school he finds a chance to reinvent himself.Summoned by a group of bullies, The Guardians as they are known ... Find Elliot unbarable to the rest of the crowd. They see potential in him and therefore arouse him into a meeting where he has to make a life or death decision. What will Elliot do? Constantly, Elliot refers to himself as dead ... this really makes you think about how Elliot may be feeling. Could you compare it to your own feelings you've experienced one time or another?
I reccommend this to everyone who likes surprises, this book left me in suspense and it was a real page turner. Clearly for ages 12+.

i have small, cheap pliers that are from the home repair section of wal-mart. they are pretty much the same as what are sold with the jewelry-making supplies, at least for library program purposes.

however, with that project, the jump rings were so easy to open and close that we just ended up using our fingers! they were 10 mm jump rings, so we just bent them open to the side and bent them back with no problem.

hope this helps!

Question: Do you have them opening and closing jump rings with two pairs of pliers and if so, were you able to find them someplace inexpensive and where??? Ok that's questionS, but I'm dreaming of doing some jewelry programs but haven't figured out where to get the equipment

I would like to suggest Hannah Faye Books. You can go to arapperscollege.weebly.com and click on Current Books for a selection. She is new and there are only two that I would really recommend for teens...they both contain strong language: A Rapper's College and Why You Parents Hate You: Speshally 4 U Teens. The title of the latter is a little misleading. It is actually a really good advice book for teens.

I love your last sentence Gretchen! It's hilarious too! Why would you steal from the library? It just doesn't make any sense!

Hello my name is Norin and I thought this book was amazing. We can all learn a life lesson by reading a page of this book everday. Bullying and teasing is a much bigger issue contrary to what some may think. It can lead to psychological issues, disorders and that just what i've heard, it may be even worse. So to all those people who bully other out there, this one is for you: TAKE A LONG, GOOD LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE, Because I see a once, was, has been, wannabe, loser, deseprate for an inkling of what can never be theres, populatity so losers buzz off.

I thought that this book was a thrill and a joy to read. We can all learn significant life lessons from reading one page a day. It taught me alot and i read it 4 yrs. ago and i still remember it till this day! Its a phenomenal book and any one can relate, it is not gender based, i recommend it to the younger audience and anyone who has a heart.
