Jamaican Baked Bananas and teen books
"Shout Out Your Summer Reads" is a time to share your favorite summer reading. This Friday Claire shared three of her favorite titles. Twilight by Stephanie Meyer, The Seer and the Sword by Victoria Lanley, and Zach's Lie by Roland Smith. Claire has read Twilight multiple times and just last night she finished rereading The Seer and the Sword. She is only half way through Zach's Lie.I too brought books to share! Twilight was one of those books. It is a great vampire story. My favorite part of the book is when the family plays baseball. The other title I shared was Peeps by Scott Westerfeld. It is also a vampire story, but with a different take.
What do Baked Bananas have to do with reading? Well the teen summer library program is "Jamaican Library" and baked Bananas is an authentic Jamaican dessert. After discussing our favorite books, we made the bananas and shared them with patrons and the staff. They were good! You can find the recipe in Lucinda's Authentic Jamaican Kitchen by Lucinda Scala Quinn.
Join us on June 29 at 2 for the next "Shout Out Your Summer Reads."

This was really fun, even though i was the only one to show up ( i wish more people would have come) it was cool to get the back tour of the libary.
If I were a teen, I would attend. This sounds great!
