third try

The Lost Tiki Palaces of Detroit
Michael Zadoorian, © 2009
short stories; 200 pages

It's been awhile since I've last updated. I've been reading a lot of children's fiction lately trying to find good reads for my students. Since The Last Olympian I haven't found anything good enough to write about.

Zadoorian's newest book is a collection of short stories. While these stories are good there isn't much new here. Many of the short stories are based on characters in his two previous novels: The Leisure Seeker and Second Hand.

Here is the big news concerning this read. This was my first time to request a book that I thought the Austin Public Library should carry. I placed an online request about 6 months ago, and it arrived at my local branch for me to have the first read. I was amazed and I love the library!
