THE SEYCOVE Super-
Readers are a group of kids

who really know their
books: they meet every
Monday after school at

Seycove District Library to
talk about their current
favorites, to share new
discoveries, and to get first
pick of whatever's new in
the library.

The Super-Readers, in
their second year, have
discussed titles as different
as Brian Doyle’s *‘Up to
Low", a rollicking tale of
one boy’s summer and a
Canadian award-winner, and
“Sweet Whispers, Brother
Rush"’ by the complex and

mystic black American
writer Virginia Hamilton.
Seycove Librarian Noreen

Ballantyne, who leads the
sessions, says that she has
found the meetings as
stimulating and informative
as the kids have.

In| March, the Super-
Readers will have two special
visitors (0 wind up their cur-
rent session. March 4, the
guest will be Ken Roberts, a

gifted local librarian and
storyteller whose recently
published book ‘‘Crazy

Ideas"’ is a big hit with mid-
dle-graders and fast becom-
ing a Canadian kids’ best-
seller.

The story concerns the
misadventures of two
children who live in a town
where crazy ideas are not
only approved of, they are
ogligatory for Junior high
school graduation.

The fun is fast and furious
as the kids set up a do-it-
yourself demolition business,
and the ending is satisfactory
for all (except, of course, the
villain of the piecy). Ken
Roberts will introduce his
book to the Super-Readers.

The following Monday,
March 11, the guest will be
Elizabeth Brochmann, a
Vancouver teacher of cre-
ative writing and critically
acclaimed author of
“What's the Matter, Girl?’’,
a poignant story of a girl's
growing up in the forties in
tural Vancouver Island.

Both of these special

Super-Readers meetings are
open to the public, and in-
terested adults and children
over eight are invited: the
time is 3:45 to 4:30 p.m
