    Made my Smore and finally figured out how to share in the group.   Now I'm inviting you to our event, the weather is always lovely in Kerikeri and you can get great deals on accommodation this time of year.  I'll even throw in a Northland welcome pack!

    This is an activity which could be adapted to be a bridge between diving in for the full shelving fiction by genre approach and shelving by author.

Bobs Books Blog | Childrens and Young Adult Book Reviews by Bob Docherty - 3 views

  •  
    I've often found useful reviews on this blog
  •  
    I've been reading Bob's blog ever since he started it and haven't found him wrong yet :) If he recommends it I usually buy it. We also share the cost with the English Dept every year and get Bob down to talk to the classes - worth every penny and he's not expensive.
  •  
    Yes, I agree Bob is a good reviewer. He is also a good presenter. Whangarei Boys High School has a 'Dads and Lads' evening with him which is very popular. I find that all the books he speaks about become popular and it's good to be the first to know about them.

  •  
    Liked this as an idea for a library based school poetry day - Poem in Your Pocket Day to share with others throughout the day after researching a poem in the library. A previous site referred to a new book 'Firefly July and Other Very Short Poems' by Paul B Janeczko (Candlewick) coming out soon.

    The author of the Murder Most Unladylike series picks her favourite sleuthing stories, from Sherlock Holmes to Sally Lockhart. Detective books are really popular in our library and I love this list of great crime novels. It also makes me want to check out a few BBC programs too..
