Book Crush
Book Crush: For Kids and Teens - Recommended Reading for Every Mood, Moment, and Interest | Nancy Pearl
11 posts | 8 read | 4 to read
From picture books to chapter books, YA fiction and nonfiction, Nancy Pearl has developed more thematic lists of books to enjoy. The Book Lust audience is committed to reading, and here is a smart and entertaining tool for picking the best books for kids. Divided into three sectionsEasy Books, Middle-Grade Readers, and Young AdultNancy Pearl makes wonderful reading connections by theme, setting, voice, and ideas. For horse lovers, she reminds us of the mainstays in the category (Black Beauty, Misty of Chincoteague, etc.) but then in a creative twist connects Mr. Revere and I to the list. In a list called Chapter One, she answers the proverbial question: which chapters books are the most compelling for kids who are now ready to move beyond picture books. And who says picture books arent deep? Recommended Folk Tales sort out many of lifes dilemmas and issues of good and bad; a selection of picture books on Death and Dying introduces this topic with sensitivity; and Youve Got a Friend offers up books for early readers that show the complexities and the pleasures of relating to others. Parents, teachers, and librarians are often puzzled by the unending choices for reading material for young people. It starts when the kids are toddler and doesnt end until high-school graduation. Whats good, whats trash, whats going to hold their interest? Nancy Pearl, Americas favorite librarian, points the way in Book Crush.

A very interesting read about the paper shortage and its effect on a specific publisher.

I couldn't be a bibliophile if I didn't love #booksaboutbooks . Just a small sampling of what's on my shelves.

This just happened. I had no idea Nancy Pearl, rockstar librarian, was on Twitter. Yesterday somebody I follow on Twitter shared Nancy Pearl‘s tweet about the librarian action figure. I decided to follow Nancy Pearl (because, of course, you do) on Twitter and she posted about the quote I have on my Twitter profile. #Wow #imnotcryingyouarecrying

TheKidUpstairs That's awesome! And a fantastic quote, too! 7y
ephemeralwaltz I love this quote. 7y
Bookzombie That‘s so cool! 7y
Kimzey So, cool! ❤️ the quotation! Thanks for letting us know Nancy Pearl is on Twitter. 7y
