Here are upcoming topics on CCBC-Net.

We will begin the first June discussion next week.

*First Two Weeks: I Can Do That! Celebrity Publishing*. From political figures to rock stars to movie stars, many of us have our ?favorites? in the realm of celebrity publishing. We?ll spend the first half of June talking about the phenomenon of celebrity publishing and whether it matters to librarians, teachers, and others committed to making the best literature possible available to young readers.

*Second Two Weeks: On the Road: Books about Traveling.* From summer vacations to holiday journeys, trips that cross the ocean to trips that cross that state or town line, children, teens, and their families are on the road and on the move in many books for children and young adults. We?ll spend the second half of June talking about traveling stories and the world?s they can open up in the minds of young readers.
