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.

Missing On Superstition Mountain

Missing On Superstition Mountain by Elise Broach

The three Barker brothers, Simon, Henry and Jack - just moved to Arizon and their parents have repeatedly warned them not to explore Superstition Mountain, which is near their home. But when their cat Josie goes missing, the boys see no other choice.
There's somethign unusually  creepy about the mountain, and when the boys find three human skulls, they grow determined to uncover the mystery. Have people really gone missing over the years and is there someone or something lurking in the woods? Together with their new neighbor Delilah, the Barker boys are deadset on cracking the case even if it means putting themselves in harm's way.

I'm a fan of Elise Broach and we've just had a group of students use her book Shakespeare's Secret as a litertature circle choice, so I know that this one will fly off the shelves before long.
