Who was Eve Pownall? - Reading Time - 1 views

  •  
    The Eve Pownall Award for Information Books has been a part of the CBCA Book of the Year Awards since 1993. This is a very important category and an interesting one to judge. The 2015 awards have seen a wide range of interesting books in this category. I have drawn together some interesting threads regarding this category in order to frame discussion around this year's entries.

Online Storytime by Barnes & Noble - Barnes & Noble - 0 views

  •  
    Barnes and Noble has a really nice selection of very well known (and many award winning) children's books.

LIBRARY STUFF: How To Create A Book List - 0 views

  •  
    "It's actually quite difficult to put together a list that appeals to everyone, especially if the number of titles is restricted. The wider the age range the list is targeted at the more challenging it is especially if you have to consider emerging readers alongside confident readers - too many suggestions aimed at each group will put many off. I've had experience of doing this for book awards and school library packs, and it takes a lot longer and is harder than you'd think. "
