Teen Book Club

    The next Book Club will be held in May (due to April vacation) on Wednesday, May 17 at 3 p.m. We will be pairing a fiction and a non-fiction book on the same subject. 

Bomb : The Race to Build and Steal the World's Most Dangerous Weapon by Steve Sheinkin and The Green Glass Sea by Ellen Klages. The first book "recounts the scientific discoveries that enabled atom splitting, the military intelligence operations that occurred in rival countries, and the work of brilliant scientists hidden at Los Alamos" while the second is a fictional account in which "it is 1943, and 11-year-old Dewey Kerrigan is traveling west on a train to live with her scientist father--but no one will tell her exactly where he is. When she reaches Los Alamos, New Mexico, she learns why: he's working on a top secret government program."
