Celebrating a New Look!

By -

It's my first official post with my brand new look! 
What do you think? 

*Twirls around to show off all the lovely*

Pretty sweet, no? I'm so excited by how it turned out. If you are looking for a makeover, absolutely check out Lori at Imagination Blog Designs. Through sheer serendipity, the design fits me even better than I had hoped. When I was a little girl (in elementary school) I always signed my name with a Saturn symbol drawn beside it. Go ahead, check out my signature line below....

Since I don't have a review ready to go live today, I'm going to share a few of my upcoming science fiction review titles.

Already finished this one - my son
insisted I read it! Review to come. 
George's Secret Key has been "on the list"
for a while. Looking forward to
reading it. 
Stuck On Earth was highlighted
today on Children's Book Almanac!
That's how I discovered it.
Thanks, Anita.
















I'll be hitting 300 blog posts in the very near future. With that plus the new design, I'm feeling so festive. How do you think I should celebrate?

She is very happy to be spending summer vacation away from home and her mom and dad and all the wonderful things she had been planning all year. Okay, maybe that last one isn’t entirely the truth. Of course, there’s nothing Harriet doesn’t like about Marble Island, the small island off the coast of California where her Nanu runs a cozy little bed and breakfast. And nobody doesn’t love Moneypenny, Nanu’s old basset hound. But Harriet doesn’t like the fact that Dad made this decision without even asking her. When Harriet arrives

Parent Book Club - Guest Post

Welcome, my friends, to my first ever GUEST POST! My fabulous school librarian (aka @ReaderRoberts ) decided to hold a parent's book club this year, to give parents ideas for getting kids reading. This past week she held the inaugural session, with a  "summer reading"  focus. Let us know what you think!  Parent Book Club - Summer Reading Sometimes your best ideas come to you in a flash.  That is how it was with the parents’ book club.  One afternoon I was sharing a title with a parent volunteer and she ended up checking the book out of the library. Nothing unusual. This happens frequently to all of us when we booktalk.  What was different was that when the parent returned the book she made the remark that I should share this book with everyone. You have probably guessed by now that the book was Wonder by R.J. Palacio. Through the year I have shared many other great titles –many of them discovered through my PLN on Twitter.
