"Book Scavenger" Hunt On Now: Author Event Friday, June 5 at 6PM with Jennifer Chambliss Bertman!

 

Please join us in welcoming the author of one of this year's "Indies Introduce" top-ten most promising debuts! 

 

Book Scavenger tells the exciting tale of middle school students following clues, hunting for books while they themselves are being hunted, and using all their puzzle-solving skills to figure out the endgame. Jennifer will be at area schools (Springer, Blach, and Bullis Charter School) earlier in the week to launch her book!

 

Jennifer grew up in Mountain View and attended both Springer Elementary and Blach Intermediary Schools, and even worked at Linden Tree as a bookseller!

 

She is thrilled to be back in her own backyard to bring this innovative adventure and mystery to readers in grades 4-8.

 

We have hidden ARCs (Advance Readers Copies) around downtown  Los Altos: participate in the fun for a chance to win some great prizes when you attend the event on Friday, June 5 starting at 6PM!
