good site for checking kids books

wow! Lots to look at on this site.Thanks for posting the link, Amber. I've marked the Diigo Assignment as complete for you.

A great book site for children's and young adult's books. Lots of reviews on books, and what's coming up

A great online resource that focuses on literature for children and young adults. Latest fiction is reviewed on a regular basis. Also many links to other literature sites is provided. Full access is available through a paid subscription.

Thanks for sharing the link to this site, Silvana. I've marked your Diigo assignment as complete on Lore.

This is a fully searchable database of all the 780 First Fleet convicts via a number of search options. Searching can be done by name, ship or by crime. The data can be downloaded free of charge provided it is for non-commercial use. This is a great way to introduce students to real data based on real people. There are many opportunities to introduce children to the language of the day through information written in the database based on the occupations listed for some of the convicts.

Thanks for sharing this valuable link, I've marked Assignment 2 as complete on Lore for you.
