New Books!!

Here are a list of some great new reads we purchased and added to the Lancaster County Youth Intervention Center's library! These were requests that residents made during my program visits. At the end of each program, the teens fill out an evaluation that helps me to tweak my program and create new exciting activities based on topics of their choice. They are given the opportunity to request books and other resources that can be purchased for their library. Here's some that were wanted and fulfilled!

Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer
Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
Several Teen Ink books - This are comparable to Chicken Soup books but are all by teens about teenage life.
Hatchet by Gary Paulsen
Tracker by Gary Paulsen
Stitches by David Small - This one's a graphic novel!

I am confident that these selections will be very well read. They seem to be common favorites among teens today, and I was so glad that in these hard economic times we can still purchase books for these teens!! They really need encouraging hobbies. And where they are currently located... they need something positive and uplifting to do with their spare evening time. I really hope we can impact teens in Lancaster County with BOOKS and ENCOURAGEMENT that the library has so much to offer... We can open so many doors of opportunity and possibility!!
