Little Brother

I have mentioned this to some of you, but not all of you.  My new favorite book, and maybe new favorite book of all time, is Little Brother by Cory Doctorow.

The back cover says:  TAKING BACK THE WORLD, ONE HACKED GAMING CONSOLE AT A TIME. 
Xbox gaming consoles, that is.  This is a powerful book that will appeal to all types of readers.

Today I came across this Little Brother-inspired YouTube video that some teens made.  Check it out:

Also, there is a great Q&A with the author, Cory Doctorow, on YouTube.  It was a stop he made at a library during his book tour and it’s broken down into 7 parts.  The first segment of it is here.

Check out this video on the Observer-Reporter‘s homepage of local seniors Wii bowling in the Teen Room! While you’re still asleep in the morning, they’re honing their skills. Got grandparents or older neighbors who you think might be interested in participating? Show them this video and urge them to come to the library on Mondays at 10:30am!

Thanks to Harry Funk and Rebecca Mack for creating this fantastic video!
