Summer of Books!

My LA partner and I wanted to get books in our kids' hands one last time before Summer Break! Our kids love hearing book talks, and we love giving them, so we created a PowerPoint with recent releases, summer releases, and favorite authors coming into town.  We also included book trailers we found online (which do not show up in the presentation below, but were awesome!), as well as information about summer reading programs through our library and the community.  It was a great way to end the school year and welcome in a Summer of Reading!

Beach Book Bash 2011

What a great way to kick off summer! My teammates and I planned this on a whim, thinking it would be a great way to wrap up a great year in books! We brought our beach towels, asked for parent support with snacks and prizes, and crossed our fingers for great weather! It was a great day!
