Tween Tuesday

Tween Tuesday is a weekly meme where I highlight
great reads for Tweens!


Babymouse: Queen of the World by Jennifer Holm and Matthew Holm

-I love Babymouse! She's the best pink superhero. She's a a spunky little mouse who has quite the imagination. Each book is a new adventure from Rock Star to Beach Babe and you know you're in for a treat with each new volume. Babymouse is the perfect graphic novel for tween girls.



Amulet: The Stonekeeper by Kazu Kibuishi
-This is an action packed graphic novel! The second volume was released this year, which is great because my tween readers have been asking for it forever. There's a good mix of adventure and fantasy, and the books have been optioned for a movie.



Jellaby by Kean Soo

-Jellaby is one of my favorite graphic novels-especially if you're looking for one that will make you warm and fuzzy and leave you smiling long after you finish it. This is followed up by Jellaby: Monster in the City and you can also find several Jellaby short stories in the various Flight comic collections, which are edited by Kazu Kibuishi and well worth checking out!

13 District Mockingjay Tour: District 4

Hello and welcome to District Four. I'm sorry that Finnick isn't here to be your host. I know as a member of District Four I should be cheering for my own tribute, but after watching the last two Hunger Games play out I have fallen in love with Peeta Mellark! Why do I love Peeta? He's smart, he's funny, and he's charming. He stands up for what he believes, he's loyal and he's not afraid to do what's right. He's sensitive and caring but can also be strong and kick butt. He fights for Katniss and with Katniss. Peeta is a great diplomat and he knows how to bring people together. He can also be sneaky to get what he wants. Plus, did I mention he can bake? And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where ...
