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.

Free Technology for Teachers: Inspire Students to Read and Travel With The Global Books... - 1 views

  • Inspire Students to Read and Travel With The Global Bookshelf The Global Bookshelf is a book search and recommendation engine that was started by my friend Gillian Duffy. The purpose of The Global Bookshelf is to help people find travel stories. The books you'll find aren't travel guides, they're travel stories that could inspire you to visit a new place and experience a new culture. You can browse The Global Bookshelf by region, genre, and book format (Kindle, PDF, physical book). Applications for Education Gillian is very keen to have others add their book reviews to The Global Bookshelf. If you have high school students who have read some travel narratives, consider having them write a review to share on The Global Bookshelf. This is a great way to provide an authentic audience for your students' work.
