Video Games Weekly: Pikman 3
This week, I was going to review Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2, but then I learned on Twitter that Nintendo released their Nintendo Selects 2016 sale! This sale is especially sweet for libraries that have Wii games that don’t want to spend the full $60 on older titles, and I personally think every game […]
Sunday Reflections: That’s Me in the Corner, Losing My Confidence (as a Reviewer)
I like Science Fiction. Like, a lot. I especially like Science Fiction that has alien invasions. Remember the moment in Independence Day when Will Smith walks out of the house to get the paper and he looks to the left, then he looks to the right, and then he finally looks up and realizes that […]

Video Games Weekly: Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
This week, I am reviewing Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth. The game has 40+ hours of gameplay, which is why it took me a little over two weeks to play through it! I’ve been a longtime Digimon fan, so of course I didn’t mind dedicating all of that time to the game Background: Digimon (short for […]

Last summer, before The Teen could enter into the middle school AP reading class, she had to read and annotate the book Wonder by R. J. Palacio. If she didn’t show up on day one of the school year with the project in her hand she was automatically kicked out of class. There were no […]
Mistakes Were Made: What I Learned About Installing an iPad Lab in a MakerSpace
This is the tale of a clever teen, a librarian, and the great iPad lock out of 2016. You see, I went to check on the status of our new iPads in the Teen MakerSpace when I realized that one of my teens had been more clever than I could have imagined. I couldn’t even […]
Sunday Reflections: Still Life By Teen, Kind of (Inspired by STILL LIFE WITH TORNADO by A. S. King)
I’ve been thinking a lot about teens. Actually, I’ve been thinking a lot about the way we talk about and treat teens. And I’ve been thinking a lot about art in the life of teens. That’s what A. S. King does, she makes you think. If you haven’t seen it already, hop on over to […]
