GONE by Michael Grant

Without so much as a *POOF* all grown-ups and everyone above the age 15, disappear. Completely. No parents. No teachers. No policemen or firefighters. No phones, internet or TV. No contact to anyone else outside of the sphere shape that appears around the town. Is there anyone out there? What starts out as a fun game, starts to turn dark as bullies begin to rule and people start to develop un-human-like powers. People start to take sides against others. Hunger threatens and time starts to run out.
'On your birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...' Rated at a 4.6/5 stars on Amazon, this is a great dystopian book series by Michael Grant. It is a 6 book series and GONE is only the beginning.

Can Plants Talk to Eachother?

Plants. All around us. So what do you think? Can these plants that are all around us talk to each other? Well, technically, the answer is yes. Have you ever seen those animals that lift their tails to warn the pack of danger? The plants are kinda like that. These plant are constantly producing chemical signals according to their environment, especially when under attack. When plants get damaged, by bugs or us humans, they send these signals either by air or through the soil to the rest of the plant so it can strengthen itself. Some plants can pick up on these signals and build up their immune system (Like when cold and flu season comes around and you stock up your house on vitamins and medicine). Even though it might be an accident to have other plants pick up these signals, they do. I found this very interesting and if you'd like to know more there is a TED ED video about it

STARGIRL by Jerry Spinelli

What do you do with a girl that is different from everyone in every way? Wears crazy outfits, caries a rat and sings happy birthday with her ukulele in the cafeteria, sends cards to people she doesn't know and brings flowers to her desk at school everyday. What do you do with a girl different in every way? The students at Mica High face this very problem. The halls that  murmur the name Stargirl soon begin to praise her every move and Leo Borlock is enchanted (and in love) with her; but when things go south, some tough decisions need to be made. This book by Jerry Spinelli celebrates nonconformity  and is a medal winner and New York Times bestseller. You can find book at the Tremonton Library! Happy Thursday!
