‘A myth finds a way to remember itself. It makes a new shape, rising out of a shallow grave in glory.’ This is a stunning, powerful retelling of the Medusa myth by Jessie Burton. On its way to @ListerLibrary.

We’ve done our last library lesson of 2021, a year in which we’ve done library lessons online from home, in classrooms with trolleys, from crates in the assembly hall and back in the (nearly finished) library. What will 2022 bring? Happy holidays!

Have you read Striking Out yet? Available from the library ⁦@ListerSchool⁩ Kids need two things – love and education’: how Ian Wright and Musa Okwonga are inspiring young people through fiction theguardian.com/books/2021/sep…

We’re looking forward to Endgame, the final book in Malorie Blackman’s amazing Nought and Crosses series. Malorie Blackman: ‘Hope is the spark’ theguardian.com/books/2021/sep…

@ListerSchool gives all our new year sevens a book to keep on their first day, and we’re looking forward to finding interesting books for all of them over the next five years. Reading is the key!

Thank you @NewhamBookshop for donating You Are a Champion by @MarcusRashford to @ListerSchool students. We are so grateful.

I’ve read it. It’s great! I’m so pleased that it has been published in time for the new school year. And I’m looking forward to getting a copy signed by @Okwonga and @IanWright0 tonight. @ListerLibrary @ListerSchool
