As always, please share your children's and young adult literature announcements during the first few days of the month.
Here are the discussion topics for July!
*First Half of Month: On the Road (Again): More Books about Travel and Journeys:* We have a recent booklist on the Lee and Low blog* to thank for the inspiration to revisit a topic we first explored in July, 2007. Whether it's around the block or across the borders of states and nations, we invite you to share your favorite books for children and teens in which characters are on the move, discovering new places or revisiting ones they love.
*Second Half of Month: Finding the Way Home:* Whether it's phyisical space or state of mind, home is--or should--mean comfort to children and teens. During the second part of July, we'll look at the way home is explored in books for youth, from those that offer depictions of homes with all the comfort and warmth we wish for every child, to those that explore and acknowledge the complexities of any home and family, to those that redefine what home can be.
