Calling all young and middle grade readers and their families! Grab your pool towels and swimsuits and join us at the Wild Dunes Swim Center for a morning of fun.
On Saturday, August 9, Buxton Books and The Club at Wild Dunes will be teaming up to throw a pool party inspired by George Brewington's action-packed middle grade novel, The Girl Who Built a Spider, where dazzling science, new friendships, and killer robots await around every corner.
Luckily, our pool party won't have killer robots. But we do hope to see you there for poolside games, a bounce house, themed snacks, a reading and book signing with author George Brewington, and a visit from special guest and beloved author Angela May (The Islanders Series)!

In this fun-filled, action-packed middle-grade novel, three young inventors are offered the chance to work with the renowned Dr. Flax in his laboratory—where dazzling science, new friendships, and killer robots await.
When Theresa Brown wins the Charleston County Middle School Science Fair, she receives the opportunity of a lifetime—an invitation to work with the celebrated scientist Dr. Flax and spend the summer building the invention of her dreams. Along with the second- and third-place finishers of the science fair, Theresa is whisked off to a world of robots, excitement, and danger.

And can Theresa and her friends get to the bottom of the mysteries of his laboratory?
