September Book Suggestions
“The Last Fairy” by Augustine Campana
Discover an ancient castle and become immersed in a tale
about marauding giants, an evil witch, a protective wizard,
and fairies of every type, talent, and description. Accompany
a brave prince who is led by fate and circumstance to a
sanctuary for fairies where he wins the heart of their queen
and discovers that she and all of her kind are threatened by a
terrible curse.
A lovely young princess stands alone as she struggles to defeat
a vengeful witch’s deadly spell that has brought her mother
and all of other fairies to the brink of extinction.
Brimming with action, magic, and fantasy, The Last Fairy is
both revealing and beautiful.
“The Dangerous Book for Boys” by Hal & Conn Iggulden
The bestselling book—more than 1.5 million copies sold—for
every boy from eight to eighty, covering essential boyhood
skills such as building tree houses, learning how to fish,
finding true north, and even answering the age old question of
what the big deal with girls is.
In this digital age, there is still a place for knots, skimming
stones and stories of incredible courage. This book recaptures
Sunday afternoons, stimulates curiosity, and makes for great
father-son activities.
The brothers Conn and Hal have put together a wonderful
collection of all things that make being young or young at
heart fun—building go-carts and electromagnets, identifying
insects and spiders, and flying the world’s best paper
airplanes.
