\nOne of my favourite new non-fiction books is A History of Children’s Books in 100 Books<\/em>.  While many of the books and stories written about have not survived, we have a surprising number of these classics right here: Alice in Wonderland, Little Women, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Where the Wild Things Are, The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe, A Wrinkle in Time, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Asterix and the Gauls<\/em>…  Just flipping through the pages of this book makes me want to hit up the Children’s section over at the Cameron branch of the BPL and re-read favourites of my own and ones I read to my sons when they were young.  And then perhaps watch the movie; all of the above have made it to the big (and\/or small) screen.
\nComing soon on the fiction side of things: a few new titles in popular series:  Ember in the Ashes, Genius, and Lorien Legacies Reborn (an offshoot of the I Am Number Four series).  With Halloween coming up, a new horror thriller – The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein <\/em>or a psychological thriller – Neverworld Wake<\/em>.
