Three great picks to check out from Hampton Memorial Library

 

Here's three great picks from the Capt. Kimberly Hampton Memorial Library..

Kids

"My Rhinoceros," by Jon Agee

If you should ever get a rhinoceros for a pet, you're in for a surprise. It won't chase a ball. Or a stick. Or a frisbie. In fact, according to the experts, a rhinoceros does only two things: pop balloons and poke holes in kites.  But don't be discouraged.  Rhinoceroses can do more — so much more — than that!

Teens

"The File on Angelyn Stark," by Catherine Atkins

Three years after her friend, Nathan, witnessed a disturbing encounter between Angelyn and her stepfather, Angelyn is confronted by a young teacher who wants to help her and becomes an object of Angelyn's affections while encouraging her to reach for her potential.

Adult

"The House I Loved," Tatiana De Rosney

Determined to protect her historical family home from Emperor Napoleon's orders to renovate 1860s Paris, Rose Bazelet establishes a defense in the basement of her house on rue Childebert and records her experiences in letters to her late husband. From the author of "Sarah’s Key."
