Calling all teenage Rosenberg patrons ages13 through 17. Rosenberg Library will continue to screen the great anime film creator Hayao Miyazaki's work throughout the spring. March’s selection will be Princess Mononoke, a gripping action/adventure film centered around a young mans struggle to free himself from a deadly curse. Along the way, our hero encounters mythical creatures, likable rogues, and deadly subterfuge. At the time of production, Princess Mononoke was the most expensive anime ever produced costing $25 million, or ¥2.5 billion.

Review: My Neighbors the Yamadas

If you didn't know, we have a collection of films by Studio Ghlibi. My Neighbors the Yamadas is one of them. It is a cute, day in the life family anime by Isao Takahata. It shows "the ups and downs of life" in the Yamamda family. The movie follows Takashi Yamada and his interactions with his family: a talentless housewife Matsuko, his teenage son, an unusually loud daughter, and grandmother who's not afraid to speak her mind. This movie is very true to life while still being entertaining and funny. It's definitely worth checking out!

New Arrivals!!

Have you been to the Rosenberg Library lately? If you have, have you checked out the new arrivals in the young adult section? If you haven't, you really should! We have received some really great anime, cartoons, and movies like Avatar, Batman, Neon Genesis Evangelion, various Miyazaki and Studio Ghlibi films, and much much more. If you like graphic novels, then we have new arrivals in that section as well like the Walking Dead series.

I highly encourage you to take a look at what we have and give us some suggestions on things we need to add. If you like what you've seen or read, please send us a review on your thoughts and we will post it here for the others to see!
