Grades 5-6 Book Club: The Scourge: REscheduled for Friday 3-23 at3pm

The January Grades 5-6 Book Club will be held on Wednesday, March 21 at 3 p.m. will be Scourge by Jennifer Nielsen

As a lethal plague sweeps through the land, Ani Mells is shocked when she is unexpectedly captured by the governor's wardens and forced to submit to a test for the deadly Scourge. She is even more surprised when the test results come back positive, and she is sent to Attic Island, a former prison turned refuge -- and quarantine colony -- for the ill. The Scourge's victims, Ani now among them, can only expect to live out short, painful lives there. However, Ani quickly discovers that she doesn't know the whole truth about the Scourge or the Colony. She's been caught in a devious plot, and, with the help of her best friend, Weevil, Ani means to uncover just what is actually going on.

But will she and Weevil survive long enough to do so?

Please remember to register for Book Club and pick up your copy of the book at the Circulation Desk a few days after the previous month's meeting.
