News from the Library   

Xin Nian Kuai Le to you and your family

Firstly, a HUGE thank you to the parents who have been regularly volunteering in our library; do you know how great it is to see you here? We appreciate it so much. Thank you for making the effort,

Steve Jenkins and Robin Page Visit  

On March 2nd and March 3rd Pudong Elementary Students (K-5) are in for a treat when not one, but two amazing, award-winning, author/illustrators share their secrets in the Elementary Library. Steve Jenkins and wife Robin Page, have co-authored over a dozen books together, and we have over 30 of Steve Jenkins books in our Elementary Library.

These authors will educate our children on the complex process of book-making, from the research stage right through to publication. On making books Steve says:

Below is the schedule for the authors visit; they are dividing their very short time with Middle School Art, so out time together will be intense and pack a punch. Until their visit, students are exploring all Steve and Robin have to offer as we read and discuss amazing books like Actual Size, Creature Features, Animals by the Numbers and the Caldecott Honor winner, What do you do with a Tail Like This?

Books for Sale

If your child likes books about animals, nature, non fiction, facts, then you are going to want to buy some of the books we have. There are over 500 books for sale. It sounds like a lot right? However, right now they are hidden in the Primary Library and we’ve already sold over 30! The hardback books in particular will sell very quickly, an autographed book always makes a wonderful gift, or personal keepsake.

If you would like to buy a book, look over the available titles below, and send in money with your child as soon as you can; to avoid disappointment, perhaps have a couple of titles in mind. We have many copies of the paperback versions, but like I said, hardback goes fast. They really are beautiful, come by and see them for yourself next time you are in school.
