Somers' Page Turners

Do people say that you are opinionated? Do you never get to say all of what you want in class discussions because time runs out or you have to give someone else a turn? Do you love to read? Then this is the spot for you!!! Page Turners used to be just a summer book club, well... not anymore. Here at Somers we like to change things up a bit- ya' know...keep up with the times. So, we decided to take Page Turners online by creating a blog. It's our first online extracurricular activity! :)

Code Talker by Joseph Bruchac

This book really said a lot about endurance and loyalty. How do you explain Ned's loyalty to the United States despite all of the harsh treatment he endured? Also, several people mentioned that this might make a good movie- why? Who would you cast for the various roles?

Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett

What were your favorite parts in Chasing Vermeer? Do you have any interesting questions about the book that you would like to read peoples' thoughts about? Do you think you'll read the sequel- The Wright 3?
