| Description: | Two women book publishers (with a great sense of humor and love of children's books) created this website that is designed for young readers. It's a forum where they talk directly to kids and introduce them to quality books to encourage reading for sheer pleasure in a non-academic mode. When you get to the site you'll find a menu that offers: *Weekly Themes - Get recommendations and reviews for books about historical fiction, book-to-movie adaptations, fantasy series, LOL funny books, mysteries and more. *Weekly Podcasts - Enjoy a kid-friendly chat featuring Nancy's and Karen's book recommendations. *Mystery Book Theater - Watch a clever video clip every week that provides some animated clues to the "mystery book" of the week. Can you guess what it is? *Reviews by You(th) - Read kid-submitted book reviews, with peer comments and ratings. Submit your own review! *Recommended Reads - Enjoy a series of blog posts with long lists of great books to read in a variety of topic/subject categories. This site offers a clever way to engage kids in the joy of reading for fun and pleasure! Be sure to bookmark it so you can return each week to see the latest posts, podcasts, videos, and reviews. |
