Welcome to Turning Pages, a blog for readers at Willow Valley Middle School. The blog will be hosted by Mrs. Kerr, the school library media teacher, but everyone is invited to participate. Along with postings about happenings in the media center, we’ll review favorite books—new, old, fiction, non-fiction---anything we’ve read that we find interesting.

Author Visits WV


Lucky day for 100 students at Willow Valley! Tyler Whitesides, the newly published author of Janitors, stopped by for a visit. While in college, he worked as a janitor and had many interesting, funny, and creepy experiences working the night shifts. He turned all those memories into a fun fantasy book about janitors and characters that lurk in schools and sap brain power from unsuspecting students. He encouraged all of us to use our imaginations to make everyday tasks more fun and challenging. We have five copies of his book (all checked out at the moment), but get your name on the wait list. Check out this video trailer about Janitors.


Keep Turning Pages !
