Next Batch o' Book Displays
July 21st, 2008
It being the height of vacation season, I wanted to display some books that don't take place in the U.S. I wanted some books that feature American kids abroad and others that feature kids from other parts of the world in their native land.

While I'm not in favor of making reading a numbers game, with less than two weeks left of summer reading club I wanted to appeal to kids' sense of economy. Besides which, many of these books don't usually get much action because they're thin! (I've mentioned before how many parents and kids in this community turn up their noses at books that aren't doorstops.)
