In keeping with our summer theme "Beneath the Surface," this month we'll be reading Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins. One summer day, 11-year-old Gregor and his 2-year-old sister fall through a vent in their New York City home into an amazing underground world. Among the giant humans who live there are scary and warlike bats, cockroaches, spiders, and rats. Gregor just wants to go home, but a prophecy hints that he may be the "overlander" destined to save the humans from the vicious rodents. He is reluctant until he learns that his father, who disappeared a few years before, is a prisoner of the rats. Gregor the Overlander is the first in an exciting, adventure-filled series from the author of The Hunger Games!
