SUMMARY:Tweens Read: "Cloud and Wallfish" by Anne Nesbet
DESCRIPTION:"Tweens Read" is a book club just for Tweens (young teens and kids on the verge of their teen years)!\n\nYou can join by coming to Spencer Road Library and picking up a copy of this book at the Children's Desk. (Copies will be available one month prior to the discussion\, and only while supplies last.) Read the book on your own\, and then come join us at the hosting branch at this specified day and time for a discussion and activities focusing on the book for this month with other tweens! At that time\, you'll be able to return your copy of the book. (Have a fun time at Tweens Read? You'll be able to sign up for the next month and pick up a copy of that book at the end of the program if you like!)\n\nFor this month's read: Slip behind the Iron Curtain into a world of smoke\, secrets\, and lies in this stunning novel where someone is always listening and nothing is as it seems. Noah Keller has a pretty normal life\, until one wild afternoon when his parents pick him up from school and head straight for the airport\, telling him on the ride that his name isn't really Noah and he didn't really just turn eleven in March. And he can't even ask them why — not because of his Astonishing Stutter\, but because asking questions is against the newly instated rules. (Rule Number Two: Don't talk about serious things indoors\, because Rule Number One: They will always be listening). As Noah—now "Jonah Brown"—and his parents head behind the Iron Curtain into East Berlin\, the rules and secrets begin to pile up so quickly that he can hardly keep track of the questions bubbling up inside him: Who\, exactly\, is listening — and why? When did his mother become fluent in so many languages? And what really happened to the parents of his only friend\, Cloud-Claudia\, the lonely girl who lives downstairs? In an intricately plotted novel full of espionage and intrigue\, friendship and family\, Anne Nesbet cracks history wide open and gets right to the heart of what it feels like to be an outsider in a world that's impossible to understand.\n\nPrefer reading it as an ebook?
