Please use the next few days to make any announcements you'd like to share with the rest of the CCBC-Net community. We will begin our discussion for the first part of November on Friday.
November Discussion Topics on CCBC-Net:
****First Two Weeks: Books for Struggling Readers It?s often a challenge for teachers and librarians to find books that meet the needs of children and teens who are struggling readers. Older children and teens don?t necessarily want to read easier novels about younger kids or picture books that seem ?babyish.? Engaging books of information often have texts that are too challenging. In the first half of November on CCBC-Net, we?ll talk about the difficulties of meeting the book needs of children and teens who aren?t proficient readers, and invite you to share specific book recommendations.**

*Second Two Weeks: The Books of David Macaulay. From witty, imaginative picture books to intricate, accessible, highly visual non-fiction exploring history, mechanics, architecture and more, the books of David Macaulay comprise a distinctive body of literature for children and teens. We?ll spend the second part of November discussing this masterful book creator?s work.
