Raising a Reader

Check out this great blog post about a kindergartner reading chapter books, and how raising a reader has worked for one family.

National Book Festival

For years, I have been trying to go to the National Book Festival. But, I always have an event to go to or rain pours all day long! I'm very excited to finally have a clear schedule and see a clear forecast for this Saturday, September 25. Held on the national mall in D.C., nearly 100 authors come together to present sessions, participate in interactive events, and sign books.

Are you planning on attending? Leave a comment and tell me about it! Visit different pavilions for events relating to Poetry & Prose, History & Biography, Fiction & Mystery, Contemporary Life, Teens, and Children. Also, check out this page for information specific to events and authors for kids.

Welcome!

Welcome to the new Library Media Center blog of Twin Ridge Elementary! This page is still under construction, but stay tuned for information about the library media center, book reviews, information about new technologies, tips for reading, and more. My goal is to update this blog weekly and I hope that you'll follow along with me!
