So did everyone trick-or-treat on Beggar's Night in Worthington last night? I thought it was a little odd that Trick-or-Treat night didn't actually fall on Halloween night, which is this Saturday. What did you all dress up as? Get some good candy? I hope everyone gets a chance to dress up and celebrate the fun holiday and opportunity to be in costume!

Did you know that every month we highlight some newer books and materials available at the library? It's in the New and Now section of our webpage. Go there each month to see new stuff that's available through Worthington Libraries.

Speaking of new books- has anyone read this one?

The author is a producer of The Daily Show (one of my favorite shoes on Comedy Central) and I think the title alone is hilarious. I checked out the book's website (http://sheldrakeindustries.com/) and found it pretty funny as well.

Here's the summary from our catalog:

"Omaha, Nebraska, twelve-year-old Oliver Watson has everyone convinced that he is extremely stupid and lazy, but he is actually a very wealthy, evil genius, and when he decides to run for seventh-grade class president, nothing will stand in his way."

I'll be interested to see if it's any good!

I'm on the reserve list, so I'll let you know once I get it.
