Hi all,
We got the following message from our good friends up in Maine who have brought us the most
awesome Graphic Novel ever in "The Undersea Adventures of
Capt'n Eli:"
First there is this cool welcome message to the newest
Seasearchers:
"Those of of here driving the sub that is Capt'n Eli headquarters, welcome the new Seasearchers!"
They also gave us some info. on a cool place to go to look into talking like a pirate:
"
To get some good practice talking like a pirate visit http://www.sarahlthomson.com and listen to the hilarious reading of, PIRATES, HO! read by Bill Dufris (the voice of Bob the Builder.)"
"The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli" Volume 2 is coming out in October!!!!!!!These guys are the best and I hope all of you out there check out "
Capt'n Eli." If you do, write the blog and let me know what you think of it.
Thanks again to our friends up in Maine and peace all,
Bil

An important day to be sure, right up there with the Forth of July and such!!!!!!! So remember to talk like a pirate this Friday!!!!!!
One of me fine fellows, the great pirate - Captain Jack Sparrow!!!!!!!!

Me personal role model and favorite pirate - Captain Barbossa and his wee monkey a name of Jack!!!!!!
Speaking of sea adventures, I would like to share a little now about the really cool "Undersea Adventures of Captain Eli" event we had last Wednesday here at ImaginOn!!!!!! First let me repeat how much I love this Graphic Novel. To see my original review of it just click: Here!!!! To see the status of the Graphic Novel in the library system click here: The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli.
At the event we placed Capt'n Eli Posters around the library with trivia questions. After the trivia questions were answered, we gave out all sorts of really cool Capt'n Eli stuff (Cups & T-Shirts), cards for the most excellent Capt'n Eli game, let those who participated be the very first people to check out the brand new Graphic Novel (Volume 1; Volume 2 is coming out next month!!!!!!!) and bestowed upon everyone who participated official Seasearcher Membership with all it's rights and privileges. It really was a great time, but enough of me talking take a look for yourself:
Two intrepid Seasearchers figuring out the answers to the trivia questions posted around the library!!!!!!
