Battle of the Books is back at the San Carlos Branch Library! What happens when your favorite fiction and nonfiction series face off against one another? Can Winnie the Pooh hold his own against the \u201cEyewitness\u201d books? Are the Berenstain Bears any match for the Magic Tree House Fact Trackers? You decide!<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s how it works: Through a series of votes, we will narrow the list of 16 fiction and nonfiction nominees to one grand champion. Visit the library throughout the summer to check out these popular titles. Then vote for your favorites!<\/p>\n
