Looking for something great to read? Mrs. Fansher highly recommends this book, Dumplin by Julie Murphy! It's really funny, pretty romantic, and full of girl power! "Sixteen-year-old Willowdean wants to prove to everyone in her small Texas town that she is more than just a fat girl, so, while grappling with her feelings for a co-worker who is clearly attracted to her, Will and some other misfits prepare to compete in the beauty pageant her mother runs." #readinglikegenerals
This book is available in print in the WHHS library and on OverDrive in ebook and audiobook formats (the audiobook is great!). It's time to make those new year's resolutions! Why not resolve to read more in 2016? Mrs. Fansher has joined the Goodreads 2016 reading challenge and has challenged herself to read 104 books during 2016! Last year Mrs. Fansher read 59 books. Join the Goodreads 2016 reading challenge today! Check the windows in the hallway outside the library to see Mrs. Fansher's progress this year!
