The South Park Branch features staff and patron recommendations throughout the library, as displayed on plastic-encased shelf talkers. Here are a few to check out:
Petite Sweets by Beatrice Ojakangas
If you prefer your desserts to be “just a bite” (or you want an excuse to try many different kinds), Petite Sweets takes the little tiny cake. The Carrot Cupcakes–made by our children’s librarian who recommended this book—are absolutely out of this world.
Homeless Bird by Gloria Whelan
Married and then promptly widowed at age 13, Koly must learn to make her own way in India after being abandoned by her unfeeling in-laws. Recommended by one of our child patrons.
Princess in Love by Meg Cabot
Picked by two teen patrons for “love and romance,” the third installation in the Princess Diary series finds Mia Thermopolis experiencing the joys and pains of a new step-father, a new sibling on the way and, she hopes, a new boyfriend.
