Reviews and ramblings about children's and young adult literature by an absentminded middle school librarian. I keep my blog to remember what I've read and to celebrate the wonderful world of children's and young adult literature.

What's New? Stacking the Shelves
Stacking the Shelves is a weekly meme hosted by Tynga's Reviews. Hop on over there to ogle what other bloggers got this week.
For review:
WooHoo! This showed up in a sparkly bubble envelop on November 1!
Double Down by Jeff Kinney. Diary of a Wimpy Kid #11. 218 p. Amulet Books/ Abrams, November 1, 2016. 9781419723445.
Publisher synopsis: The pressure’s really piling up on Greg Heffley. The only thing he’s good at is playing video games, but his mother wants him to broaden his horizons by doing something—anything!—else.
When Greg finds an old video camera in his basement, he thinks he may have discovered just the thing to prove he’s got big-time talent. With the help of his best friend, Rowley, Greg hatches a plan to make a scary movie . . . and to become rich and famous in the process.
But is doubling down on moviemaking a smart plan? Or is it just a recipe for doubling Greg’s troubles?
Does Wimpy Kid need a publisher synopsis? Really. Not only is it an automatic purchase but I usually get one to review but need to order multiple copies of each book because they are loved and loved to death.
That's what's new with me, what's new with you?
