I like my library books the way I like my coffee: bold, indestructible, gorgeous, and...properly cataloged? OK, that analogy broke down quickly. Anyway, excited for our first order from @BTSBBooks!

A 2nd grader in Idaho got his homemade graphic novel added to his local library! Of course, Parkdale kids have been doing this for a while. Visit our Student Authors page for a growing catalog of amazing kid-created content!

Dillon Helbig, 8, wrote a book that he wanted everyone to read. So he slipped his sole copy onto the shelves of his local library. The book, a richly illustrated tale about traveling back in time after a Christmas tree star explodes, was a hit. nyti.ms/3AOGMnX

Dillon Helbig, a second-grader from Idaho, wrote an 81-page book about his “Crismis” adventures. Now other children want to write stories.

I honestly wasn't a big fan of the live-action Wimpy Kid movies, but the animated version looks great! Beware the Cheese Touch!

#NYSCATE21 was full of creativity and inspiration; can't wait to start using some of these ideas at Parkdale!

We’re back. #nyscate21.
If you are one of the many students wondering when Amulet 9 will come out, look at how many pages Kazu Kibuishi has written and illustrated so far! Somehow this will all be turned into a single book. Not sure when it will finally be published, but I can't wait!

Amulet 9 has been different than any book I have worked on before. It’s required much more information to be curated/compressed into the final product. Here’s a look at the amount of content created so far. This energy will be condensed into a small book that fits in a backpack.
Check out our new Student Authors section on the Parkdale Library website. We have lots of amazing writers and illustrators! If you have a story you'd like to share, bring it to me in the library and I'll add it to the website! drive.google.com/file/d/1MPM…

Parkdale kids, THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Aaron Reynolds and Peter Brown are making a third "creepy" book--CREEPY CRAYON! Just one problem: it won't be released until August, 2022. 😭

Thanks to all the students and families who supported this year's @Scholastic Book Fair, and an extra shout-out to the volunteers who helped make it a success!
