LM_NET: Library Media Networking
Caroline Cooney resently gave a talk in which she highly
praised R.L. Stine. Her son is a non-reader - not a
reluctant one, but one who reads not at all. He is a
teen now and became interested in reading because he
WANTED to readed Stine and King. If Stine is why kids
read, then Stine is what I'll give them. I also
booktalk aften so kids have a passing knowledge of what's
out there in other genres. Not much is left on the cart
when I'm done booktalking. If Stine is good enough for
Cooney, whose books a push in booktalks, then Stine is
good enough for my readers.
Does anyone else booktalk often? If so, in what classes
and on what topics.
Thanks!
