I'll start today with our book group that I think defines the kind of reading we like to encourage here at Little Shop. The Kid's and Companions book group is for young readers solidly into reading chapter books and the adult reader of their choice: parent, grandparent, uncle or aunt, guardian--somebody they can share their love of reading with.

Gods of Manhattan takes on mythology and New York, but in a completely new, interesting, and different way. The gods here are the gods of history: Peter Styuvesant, Babe Ruth, Hiram Greenbaum and the native Americans who once populated what is now the Big Apple. Rory is the only one who can see their world, a world which runs parallel to ours, and only he can help the forces of good outweigh the growing power of the very bad that threatens not just New York City, but civilization as we know it.
