Happy Halloween!

Who doesn't love the History Channel? Put your hand down; that was rhetorical. Now go read this article about how Halloween is celebrated around the world. Did you know it originated in Ireland? That one wasn't rhetorical.
Contest: How many popular holidays came from Ireland. Special prize to the first five students to track me down and give me an answer. Extra prizes if you come up with any I didn't think of!
Remember to come by and check out your favorite scary books in time to have them for Halloween. We've got everything from the frightening Stephen King to R.L. Stine. Don't forget all time favorite Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.

Millikan kids finished another puzzle!

Congratulations on fitting together 999 pieces; sadly, 1 piece walked away. We'll have a new puzzle ready to stretch your brains at the end of the week. Please donate puzzles--as long as they have all their pieces!

At the moment I'm reading Palace of Stone (yes, I change books a few times a day). It's the sequel to Sharon Hale's Princess Academy. I'm only ten pages in and already hooked. I love a good sequel!
