About Me

I'm the school librarian at G.S. Lakie Middle School. As you can see - me, reading and comfy chairs go way back. I still enjoy Asterix and many other graphic novels. My main reason for blogging is for reviewing books for the students and anyone else that might be interested in YA literature.

Crocodile Tears


Crocodile Tears by Anthony Horowitz
It's just another day in the life of an average kid. If you're Alex Rider that is. A con-artist has realized that there is big money in charity- the bigger the disaster the more the money flows. So that is what he will produce - the biggest disaster known to man, all thanks to genetically modified wheat that can release a virus so potent it can knock out an entire country in one windy day. But Alex Rider will face whatever it takes -- gunfire, explosions, hand-to-hand combat with mercenaries -- to bring down his most dangerous advisary yet.
Fans of this series, snap up the couple of copies we had at the library before I could even take one home with me, and from their reviews this one is a winner. We were led to believe that this would be the final Alex Rider book, and surprize at the end of this one we learn that there willl be two more. Bravo Mr. Horowitz, Bravo!
I hope there will be a copy for me, waiting under the tree.
Read On.
Here's and interview with Anthony Horowitz.
