Thank you to everyone who shared perspectives on Personal Boundaries, Professional Responsibilities in September.

It's now time to focus on our topic for the first part of October: Notable Non-Fiction.

In the past couple of years we've seen some remarkable non-fiction for children and teens published. While exemplary non-fiction books are published each year, we've been excited by the number of outstanding informational books.

So what are some of your recently published non-fiction favorites.

We also want to know if--and how non-fiction--is found and read by children and young adults. Do you have kids and teens who seek out non-fiction? Is it a hard sell for others? What do you do to promote it to the children and teens with whom you work?
