Movies galore!

Okay, so there's no TAG meeting tomorrow (sad, I know!) but we will meet again next Thursday!

In the meantime, join us for some movies! Friday we'll be having Part 1 of a Miyazaki Movie program, you'll get to choose from some Studio Ghibli films: Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Whisper of the Heart, Ponyo and (of course) Howl's Moving Castle. We'll start the movie this Friday and finish it next Friday.

On Saturday I'll be in the library all day long, so feel free to stop by and say hi! At 2:00 I'll be hosting a movie screening of Tangled which is open for all ages. If you're babysitting, or want some extra 'good child' points in your parents' eyes bring your younger siblings with you to watch Tangled here at the library! I'm very excited, I've never seen it!

Hope you can make it out to watch some movies this week!

DFTBA,
Sti

P.S. A few gifs of the movies to get you excited!

First Blog Ever!

Well, this is the launch of the new Friendswood Library Young Adult Blog. I chose the name Book Bag after looking at the names of some other libraries' blog titles, but if there is a better name out there, let me know! I created this blog primarily so you can find out what activities are coming up for the 11-16 age group here at the library. I'll be posting brief descriptions of our activities, photos, book reviews, and other interesting things that I happen to see. In recent news: the TAG Christmas party was December 8, and everyone worked together to make it a success. Thanks to all the hardworking volunteers! We ate holiday snacks, sang Christmas karaoke, and had a snowball fight outside! Check out the library's Flickr site for all the pictures. We're taking a brief break during the Christmas holidays, but we'll be starting up again on January 11 with personalizing snack dishes to use every week. Instead of throwing away bowls and cups after our Fr...

Summer 2021 Recommendations for Your High School Reader!

  Summer is fast approaching and if you have a high school reader, you might be looking for new titles to engage them this summer. Librarian, historian, and author Alexandria Brown has allowed us to share their recommended lists to help make that easier! Per their blog*: As a high school librarian, offering reading recommendations for students is one of my favorite parts of my job. These lists are for parents, library workers, and teen readers... I created these lists through an alchemy involving age of the protagonists, themes, genre, tone, complexity, reader skill/comfortability level, events and topics a student will likely encounter in their studies during the school year, and books they are unlikely to read for school. I also tried to pick materials that published in the last few years or will be published by June 2021. Preference to #ownvoices and marginalized authors. Below you'll find links to their lists broken up by grade level. Whether you know an avid reader who always...
