Series and Sequels: |
I love series books, but I'm not always sure which book is next. Here is a great web site to help you find out which book in your series is next.
Just type in the name of your series or book and you will see a numbered list of the books by publication date. What a great way to track your series. |
Book Trailers and Reviews:
Book trailers are a great way to peek the interest of a reader. http://www.slimekids.com/book-tra!ilers/ is a great resources for book trailers. We will be creating our own book trailers this year using some of these as examples. If you read a great book and would like to create a trailer bring your book to the media center and let's get started, your book trailer may be the first one posted on the media center website!!!
