Meet the Librarians Part Two

This is part two of Meet The Librarians.  We started this feature in the fall with my first group of PNG kids.  Now we have a new group of kids, and we are starting up where we left off.  Every week you will get to meet a librarian, or someone who works at the library, and learn a little bit about them and what they do at the library.

My Favorite Book- Holes


Stanley Yelnats is under a curse because his No-Good-Dirty-Rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-Grandfather.  He gets sent to a Boys Detention Center to build character,so he gets to dig holes
everyday. Then there's the Warden. Well,  there is history about her and her  Grandfather also making her dig holes. The secret as to why they're digging holes is to search for treasure. Stanley makes a deal with Zero, a boy at the detention center. He will teach Zero how to read and write, and Zero will dig holes for Stanley. Zero then gets into a fight with another boy and he runs off. Now Stanley has to go search for him. You'll have to read the book to know the rest.
