Breaking News!!

November 8th, 2007

Keturah and Lord Death is a National Book Award finalist- didn’t I make an excellent choice? Actually, I love all the Snow books, but I thought this was kind of neat. As an aside, kids at my school dressed up for Halloween. One of my favourite Grade 6 boys was dressed in a long, flowing black cape. When I asked him what he was, he said”Lord Death,of course!” He was the first to read this book and absolutely loved it. It is now making the rounds in that grade 6/7 classroom as are many of the others. Hats off to the Willows!

    I Love Kids’ Books
    I have the privilege of being a teacher-librarian in 2 elementary schools. That means I have the best of all worlds; I teach and work with children from Kindergarten through grade 8; my job encompasses the management of the libraries as well as developing the collections. And my homework? Reading and more reading! What more could a life-long bookworm ask for? The point of this blog is mainly for my own use- to make myself some notes about some of the many books I read- to prompt my failing memory, to use as the basis for book-talks or newsletter inserts and to provide information for others that may be interested. These will not be formal or lengthy- but just some of my thoughts.
