Win it Wednesday: Two Girls, a Clock, and a Crooked House by Michael Poore

This is a story of things that are not possible.
It's not possible for Amy to see spirits. (She does.)
It's not possible that Amy and Moo can communicate using only their minds. (They do.)
It's not possible to time-travel. (Yet.)
And it's definitely not possible that witches exist. (Seriously?)
None of these things are possible. (Until now....)

After Amy is struck by lightning, she and her silent friend, Moo, are able to communicate telepathically, travel through time, and face a child-eating witch.

Congratulations Piper M.! You are our latest Win it Wednesday winner.

Win it Wednesday: Bad Dog by Mike Boldt

"Look what I got for my birthday! A pet dog!" says a little girl holding a . . . cat? Rocky doesn't listen or obey like all the other dogs. (Because Rocky is a cat). And Rocky hates her leash and doesn't seem to like other dogs. (Probably because Rocky is a cat). And rather than play fetch, Rocky prefers to . . . lick between her toes? Ew. Rocky is a bad "dog"! BUT Rocky doesn't bark, and is so cute when she sleeps in sunny spots. Maybe Rocky IS a good dog? (Or, you know, maybe Rocky is a cat).

Congratulations Annie A.! You have won this Win it Wednesday and can pick-up your book when we reopen.
