Books on CD's and Playaways

Recorded books have been popular at the Los Gatos Library. In addition to current titles, Los Gatos High School reading list 2007 was consulted in
development of this collection.

Here are several of the latest titles received:

Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde

Harmless by Dana Reinhardt

Separate Peace by John Knowles

Athletic Shorts by Chris Crutcher

Mindless Eating by Brian Wansink

Rash by Pete Hautman

We’re starting a collection in the Teen area called Play-a-ways.
These self contained digital recordings need only one AAA battery and set of ear phones.
They are very compact – Others will think you’re listening to music when actually, “It’s a book!”

Play-a-ways are available in the Children’s area of the library too.

Here are several of the Teen titles available in the Teen section:

Angus, thongs and full-frontal snogging: confessions of Georgia Nicolson by Louise Rennison

Chinese (Cantonese)

Uglies by Scott Westerfield

Pretties (part 2 of the Uglies trilogy) by Scott Westerfield


Specials (part 3 of the Uglies trilogy) by Scott Westerfield

After the Wreck I Picked Myself Up, Spread my Wings, and Flew Away by Joyce Carol Oates

Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
