WE WON!


As you know from previous blog posts, July marks the 50th anniversary of To Kill A Mockingbird. I entered the contest to win an audio book from Recorded Books K-12 and I just got the email that The Wheatley School WON! As many of you know, I am a HUGE audio book fan, listen to about one a week. I have listened to To Kill A Mockingbird, narrated by Sissy Spacek and it is FANTASTIC. She is such an accomplished actress and she brings a level of warmth and charm to this classic book, which I hope you will enjoy as much I did. Email me and let me know if you want to check out this audio book.

Zombies-How very nice!

WARNING- IF YOU DON'T LIKE SCARY MOVIES-SKIP THESE VIDEOS

This is the short version of Charlie Higson's The Enemy
Here is the long version.


Totally unsettling- and a testament to how far book marketing has come. After viewing the video and I am certainly going to put this on my MUST BUY list,as well as it's sequel,The Dead, which is due out this September. True creepiness is my cup of tea. If you liked Rick Yancey's The Monstronomolist,( I LOVED IT) I imagine this is a great read for you.
Which trailer do you prefer?
