The Eastern Regional Library Show

Each Wednesday 12:05pm-12:45pm Lesley Conway does a radio show on Eastern FM 99.1 called The Eastern Regional Library Show.

On this week's show

Back from 9 weeks leave, Pia (Youth Services at Croydon Library) brought us up to date with some books she has been enjoying. With a definite leaning towards fiction written for teens, we discussed books which defy categories, such as...
The curious incident of the dog in the night-time by Mark Haddon, about a teenager with Asperger's syndrome, and The boy in the striped pyjamas by John Boyne, about a young German boy whose father was an officer at Auschwitz.

Other books discussed on the programme were...
Shamers daughter by Kaaberbol
Amulet of Samarkand by Stroud
A monster wrote me a letter by Bland (picture book)

Music was I remember you by Frank Ifield which can be found on the CD Australian decades series : 60's, and is on the soundtrack of the Heartbeat TV series, with 3 videos of the series being available for loan.

Cheers, Maryanne
