Empire Magazine- and my top 10 movies.

By -
Location: Magazines and all over the library!!!
Genre: Film


This is the magazine of all things movies.
I love the movies, I get to see most of them on the small screen- the aeroplane as I travel, but this year I have managed a few more at the theatre. I love the ones on the plane as the selection is so vast you get to watch movies that are not generally that well known. Movies of stories about people, historical, fictional, but real, are the ones that feed my soul the most. Stories of the journey of people from one state to another, from one set of circumstances to another, the journey of a child to an adult, the stories of survival- emotional and physical. So maybe I should list my top ten in no particular order-
  1. The Lord of the Rings
  2. Water ( and the rest of this series- Fire and Earth- Indian movies)
  3. Princess Bride
  4. Bella
  5. Mama Mia ( Sorry bout that one)
  6. My Afternoons with Margueritte
  7. Boy
  8. Babel
  9. Juno
  10. Gandhi
Well that is the list today for what it is worth.This is the favourite magazine in the school library, it is battered, read, in all sorts of places all over the library, and the only one really well read before it gets onto the shelves and now I am going to end my day by skimming the latest because soon I have a big plane ride and it has a small screen.

By: Charlie Mackesy  Location: In someones hands Genre: Beautiful- Little Prince x Winnie the Pooh This is the most stunning book I have pondered on in a very long time. It is just beautiful and thoughtful and profound.  Enter the world of Charlie's four unlikely friends, discover their story and their most important life lessons. The boy, the mole, the fox and the horse have been shared millions of times online - perhaps you've seen them? They've also been recreated by children in schools and hung on hospital walls. They sometimes even appear on lamp posts and on cafe and bookshop windows. Perhaps you saw the boy and mole on the Comic Relief T-shirt, Love Wins? Here, you will find them together in this book of Charlie's most-loved drawings, adventuring into the Wild and exploring the thoughts and feelings that unite us all.

By: Martin Handford Location: Wherever you might find Wally- there the book is! Genre: Still looking for one. So one of our students who left school last year thought it humerous to circle all the Wally's or Waldo's if you are from Europe- in our books- first one made me smile- but by the time I had seen this in all three books- I was not! Because you all love Wally so much- we bought you some new books! Enjoy and keep Wally's whereabouts a secret!!

A Disaster in Three Acts

 By: Kelsey Rodkey Location: FIC ROD Genre: Young Adult Romance Fans of Elise Bryant and Rachel Lynn Solomon will swoon for Last Chance Books author Kelsey Rodkey’s next romance, packed with snark, banter, and inconvenient crushes. Saine Sinclair knows a little something about what makes a story worth telling. Your childhood best friend refuses to kiss you during a pre-adolescent game of spin the bottle? Terrible, zero stars, would not replay that scene again. The same ex-friend becomes your new best friend’s ex? Strangely compelling, unexpected twist, worth a hate-watch. That same guy—why is he always around? —turns out to be your last shot at getting into the documentary filmmaking program of your dreams? Saine hates to admit it, but she’d watch that movie. There’s something about Holden that makes her feel like she’s the one in front of the camera—like he can see every uncomfortable truth she’s buried below the surface. Saine knows how her story’s supposed to go. So why does every m
