I have been reading Mr. Lemoncello's Library Olympics this week and I love it! It is just as great as the first. My school read Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library last year for our One Book, One School, which worked out really well. (For more information, see this post about One Book, One School.) We were lucky enough to have each grade level from 3rd-5th Skype with the author, Chris Grabenstein in the fall and then super lucky to be able to get Chris Grabenstein to visit our school as he was on tour, thanks to Anderson's Bookshop. Love those free author visits!In the sequel, kids from around the country get to compete against Kyle and his buddies in Alexandriaville, OH to see who truly are the library champions. Kyle isn't so sure his library knowledge is up to snuff compared to these library experts, and his team has its ups and downs. When they realize something suspicious is going on . . . books are missing from Mr. Lemoncello's library, the kids will have to band together to get to the bottom of this mystery.
Make sure to check out the resources on Chris Grabenstein's website, including book trailers! I love the one with Chris Grabenstein training for the olympics.
