Kenneth Oppel is Coming to Millikan

Kenneth Oppel Speaking in Burrill Hall Period 6 and Homeroom, October 28th, 2015

We are so lucky to once again have an amazing author visiting Millikan to discuss books and writing. You may have read Mr. Oppel's books Airborn, or The Boundless, but these adventures are nothing like his newest novel, The Nest. This book will be a perfect pre-Halloween creepy read, but don't read this one at night! Read more about Mr. Oppel and his books, especially the newest one, The Nest. 

All students may order books using this form and returning it to Mrs. Carroll in the Library by October 28th.

Get those questions ready!
