The Book Discussion Clubs at Boulan Park and Smith Middle Schools will have the honor of hosting author Paul Durham via Skype chat!

The topic of our virtual Q&A session with Mr. Durham will be The Luck Uglies, his middle-grade fantasy/adventure novel.  

Smith's Club will chat with Mr. Durham on October 22 from 3-4 pm , and Boulan's Club will chat with him on November 5, 2:35-3:30 pm.

Mr. Durham has asked that anyone who attends the club meeting has read his book. Check The Luck Uglies out in the Media Center or purchase it there for $15. See Mrs. Chatel for an order form.  

All students are welcome! We hope that you will join us for this great opportunity to chat with an author.

From the publisher:

Strange things are happening in Village Drowning. Not that there’s much eleven-year-old Rye O’Chanter hasn’t already seen. Rye has grown up on Drowning’s treacherous streets—its twisted rooftops and forgotten cemeteries are her playground. But a terrifying encounter on the night of the Black Moon has Rye half-convinced that the monstrous Bog Noblins have returned from the forest Beyond the Shale. It's the same forest that mysteriously swallowed Rye’s father soon after she was born.

 Rye’s mother insists the Bog Noblins are extinct…but what if she’s wrong? There’s nobody left who can protect the village from the vile creatures. There was once—an exiled secret society so notorious that their name can’t be spoken out loud.

 The Luck Uglies.

 Now a stranger named Harmless has stepped from the shadows, leading Rye to question everything she’s been told as she dives into Drowning’s maze of secrets, rules, and lies. What she’ll find is the truth behind Drowning’s legend of outlaws and beasts…and realize that it may take a villain to save them from the monsters.
