BRITISH Harry Potters!

Have you read all of the Harry Potters more than once? Well, two Harry Potters were donated to the library that were published in the UK! There aren't very many differences, but if you are a Harry Potter aficionado these are two books you won't want to miss!

Find them the Fantasy Section: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Throwback by Jason Kendall

Spring Training is well underway in Florida, and that means baseball is coming back to Pittsburgh! Get ready for days at the ballpark with one of our books about baseball, located in the 796 section in  nonfiction. A good one to read is Throwback by Jason Kendall. Kendall, a former Pirate, tells readers about what it's really like to be a baseball player, and shares "pregame rituals, what to look for when a pitcher warms up between innings, the signs a catcher uses to communicate with the pitcher, and so much more." So if you are planning to see the Pirates this spring or summer, read Throwback so you can have an inside view of what's happening on the field.
