Hilldale School

We are delighted to have, Prudence Breitrose, the author of Mousenet come to Hilldale to speak on Tuesday, March 26th at 9AM to our 3rd - 8th Graders in Mr. Trapasso's room. This is one way we will be celebrating reading! While this book is geared for 3-6th Grade readers, all these students will have the chance to talk to a published author about her process and what it takes to be successful in publishing one's work.
Students are encouraged to purchase a copy of the book, if they would like, for $8.67/ book. I am quite sure she'd be happy to sign them.
Here is a summary of the story from amazon.com:
When ten-year-old Megan helps her uncle invent the Thumbtop, the world's smallest computer, mice are overjoyed, and they want one for every mouse hole. The Big Cheese, leader of the Mouse Nation, has orders: follow that girl--even if it means high-tailing it to Megan's new home on the other side of the country. While Megan struggles as the new girl, the mice watch, waiting for their chance. But when they tell Megan the biggest secret in the history of the world--mice have evolved, and they need her help--she isn't sure anyone will believe her. With all of Mouse Nation behind her, Megan could become the most powerful girl alive, but just how will she create a Thumptop for every mouse?
