This is a brand new wiki intended to highlight the Rundlett Middle School Library.<br />
<br />
It is just the beginnings of an idea and hopefully much more will follow. To begin the discussion, here is a list of the books available in the library in mp3 format. The students have really taken to this technology. I only wish I had more players to loan out!!<br />

She and her sisters, dreamy Martine, glamourous Rochelle, and tough Jude, could hardly be more different from each other, but their Mum's tried to teach them the value of sticking together. Now Mum's expecting yet another baby, and she's convinced this one is a boy. Time to move to a bigger place, she insists, and the girls scarcely have time to protest before they find themselves at their new house. It's rough, dilapidated, and filthy, and before they've even unpacked the furniture, Mum goes into labour!<br />
