October isn’t over yet, and it’s not too late to participate in Teen Read Month at the Mira Costa Library. Don’t forget to visit TLC: The Library Club’s Scary Books Display, then borrow a book from the Scary Books display or any library book, and earn a chance to guess the number of candies in the candy jar, and you could be the winner of the whole jar!

Also, don’t miss these deadlines:

  • Create a bookmark for the Manhattan Beach Public Library Bookmark Contest. Entries are due to our library by October 31.
  • Create a poster for California School Library Association’s @YourLibrary Contest. Entries due to our library by October 31.

And, to help you get ready for Halloween, here’s a great scary book you can listen to online: Master Storyteller Neil Gaiman reading of his Newbery-award winning thriller, The Graveyard Book, during a national tour, including his answers to audience questions. Here’s the link. Be prepared to be spooked!
