Hot off the Press! Grasshopper's Week

Today in the Library we were treated to a surprise visit from Darcy and his friend Luke.  Darcy, who has read nearly all the books in this Library (and that's lots!) had one particularly special book he wanted to share.

It was a lovely Picture Book called 'Grasshopper's Week, written by his Mum! We didn't have time to read it today, but we all admired the beautiful illustrations and can not wait to get our own copy for the Library

There were no surprises with the Diary of the wimpy kid titles and the ever popular Roald Dahl. I was thrilled to see David Hill's 'Sinking' as our 6th most popular title. David was one of our visiting authors last year and made a big impression on the students.  

I wonder what our most popular titles this year will be?
