November 2000: History through Nonfiction - More than a decade ago, Russell Freedman set a new standard for outstanding history for young readers with his photobiographies such as "Lincoln: A Photobiography,"
"The Wright Brothers: How They Invented the Airplane," and "Eleanor Roosevelt: A Life of Discovery." Today the trend continues with outstanding history being written by authors such as Patricia and Frederick McKissack, Jim Murphy, Rhoda Blumberg, Susan Campbell Bartoletti, and Marian Calabro. We'll discuss some of the outstanding history being written for young readers today.
December 2000: Favorite Books of 2000 - What was the best book you read in 2000? The last month of the year has traditionally been a time when we invite members of the CCBC-Net community to share their favorite books of the year.
