Vacation!

I’m off on vacation later today, so don’t expect any updates for a week or so. Then I will be back having hopefully made it through some of the stack of books I have packed. I always pack far too many books on a trip for fear of not having enough to read.

State Reading Lists

A very nice service from Simon & Schuster is their collection of Simonsays.com >State Reading Lists. You can search by specific grades, and authors & illustrators.

Best Children's Books

Publisher’s Weekly has released their list of the Best Children’s Books of 2005. It is a wonderful list of some of the best of the year. Most of them are familiar titles, but there are always a few hidden gems to explore.
