Tweens can join a discussion about "A Friendly Town That's Almost Always by the Ocean!" by Kir Fox and M. Shelley Coats. Ages 10-13. Registration is required.

"Welcome to Topsea, the strangest place you'll ever visit. In this town, the coves are bottomless and the pier has no end in sight. There's a high tide and a low tide ... and a vanishing tide. Dogs are a myth, but mermaids are totally real. And whatever you do, don't make eye contact with the rubber ducks!

New kid Davy definitely thinks Topsea is strange. His mom keeps saying they'll get used to life in their new town--it's just the way things are on the coast! But after his first day at Topsea School, Davy finds himself wondering: Why is his locker all the way at the bottom of the school wimming pool? What can't anyone remember his name? (It's Davy!) Any why does everyone act like all of this is normal?!" - inside cover description
