Lunar New Year Love Story is a fantastic graphic novel, and the artist will be in the area in April. See this flyer from the Dewitt Community Library.

I'm actually surprised by this win because YA books usually don't have enough Caudill readers to win. Congrats to The Inheritance Games. https://t.co/4r7GHzoaY9

GMS readers are so grateful to win an entire set of @officialwimpykid books from @abramskids ! No matter how old the books are, they are always our top checkouts and we can't keep them on the shelves. #BeLeafs
