Elem: reading clubs

[Sarah Thorn <Sjthorn@AOL.COM>]

I know this subject has been addressed before, but if you have led a
book/reading club in your school and would be willing to share some tips and
suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.  I'm in a K-5 school and want to do
something special with my 5th graders.  Some of my questions are:  how do you
choose the members of the club?  What types of books work best?  How do the
students obtain and pay for the books?  Are discussions led by students or
librarian?  What things have worked well for you?

Thanks in advance for your help.
