TEEN GIVEAWAY: THE PLAIN JANES (GRAPHIC NOVEL)

Teens in grades 6-12 will get a free copy of the graphic novel The Plain Janes by Cecil Castellucci and Jim Rugg!

Pickup details will be emailed to you within 48 hours of registration. Limited to 25 teens, one per person. Teens must be patrons of the Homer Township Public Library.

Registration opens Monday, September 20 at 8:30am.

Book description: When artsy misfit Jane Beckles is forced to leave her beloved city life behind for the boring suburb of Kent Waters, she thinks her life is over. But then she finds where she belongs: at the reject table in the cafeteria, along with fellow misfits Brain Jayne, Theater Jane, and sporty Polly Jane. United by only two things-a shared name and frustration with the adults around them--the girls form a secret club dedicated to fighting suburban apathy with guerrilla works of art scattered around their small town.

But for Main Jane, the group is more than simple teenaged rebellion; it's an act of survival. She's determined not to let fear rule her life like it does her parents' and neighbors' lives. Armed with her sketchbook and a mission of resistance, the PLAIN Janes are out to prove that passion, bravery, and a group of great friends can save anyone from the hell that is high school.

With each installment printed in its own distinct color, this volume includes the original two stories--The Plain Janes and Janes in Love--plus a never-before-seen third story, Janes Attack Back. The Janes are back, and better than ever.
