July Book Pick: Nothing to See Here by Kevin Wilson

Lillian and Madison are two unlikely friends separated after a boarding school scandal. Years later, Madison, wife to a senator, begs Lillian to become her twin step-children’s governess. Ten-year-old Bessie and Roland are special kids: when they become agitated, they spontaneously combust, and Madison is desperate to avoid a scandal that would upset the Senator’s chances of becoming Secretary of State. Lillian accepts and, with help from Carl, the Senator’s right-hand man, guides the children through coping mechanisms in the guest house on the estate. Their progress is upended, though, when the Senator’s prospects rapidly change and Lillian has to decide where her loyalties lie.

Books and CDs are available at the library. E-books and e-audios available on Libby and Hoopla.
