The City of Ember by: Jeanne DuPrau

Imagine what it would be like if you lived in a city underground. It would be a very, very, limited life, right? That's what it's like to live in Ember. It's a grand city that has hundreds of people that don't even know what the sun is! But they survive with 1 light source, the generator. If it's not working, then the city can get 'blackouts' and none of the lights work. But two people believe that there is another city. Doon Harrow and Lina Mayfleet. As they try to escape Ember, They read a map made by the Builders, but Lina's very sick grandma tears it up. Do Lina and Doon make it out of Ember, or does the evil mayor catch them? Read The City of Ember to find out!

The Cave

The Cave is the new section in our library developed with boys in mind. This section was a result of Mrs. Haynes' research into boys and reading and how our school library can meet their reading needs. Mrs. Haynes worked with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade boys to select books that appeal to boys. Of course, girls are welcome too! Please take a few minutes to view the video below.
