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.

Case closed?


Case closed? nine mysteries unlocked by modern science by Susan Hughes

This was a fascinating read suggested by one of our students. The nine mysteries are: ancient eypgtian female pharoh Hatshepsut -was it murder?, Could early explorer Hsu Fu reach North America in a bamboo boat?, What happened to the city of Ubar? Where did the Anasazi people disappear to? What happened to the men of  Sir John Franklin's mission to find the North West Passage?, Could Russian princess Anastasia escaped ?,  Did George Mallory summit Mt. Everest first?,   What happened to the airliner Stardust?,  Where did INS Dakar go?,

These mysteries are researched and debunked with the use of modern science. I learned alot and found these cases to be filled with intrigue, some of them get completely solved, others are still part mystery.
