The List by Patricia Forde  

Word smith, Letta finds herself in the middle of an evil plan to destroy all language. A language that only has 500 words...

SourcebooksInc describes this story as Farhrenheit 451 meets The Giver! This story is a great reminder of the power of words and the dangers of censorship.

Hello Truro Jr! It's been awhile but we are finally back together.

 Yes, things are being done differently but that's ok, it's been said, change is good!

Unfortunately our library is closed to students but will be accessible.  

Library staff are currently working on getting things up and ready so students can borrow books via a travelling library!

Stay tuned...

Let's get together...online.

Hey everyone! I was thinking that it would be great to have a weekly meeting group. We could use Google Hangout for the meetings. Perhaps we can create a book club, a current events club and/or just a drop-in to say "hi"club!  If anyone is interested please email me at whitek@gnspes.ca

Read for Free!
