Guest Post at Booking Mama
Today I am thrilled to share with you my guest post at Booking Mama. Last fall, Julie Peterson developed a weekly feature about book clubs, which runs every Thursday on her blog. I sent along some information on my after-school groups, and she responded immediately, saying she’d love to share my story.
My Sitemeter account indicates that most people who stop by Caroline by line, apart from you regular readers, are looking for information on book clubs for kids. I hope this post will equip others to develop their own programs, find new titles for their children to sample, or simply encourage the oft-forgotten notion (in school, at least,) of reading for pleasure.
Stop by!
Awesome! :0) I’ll stop by to check it out. Look at you!
Thank you so much for sharing! I love your guest post, and it means even more to me know that I’m running an after-school book club over the next few months!
Julie, I can’t wait to hear the details. What will you be reading?
Caroline,
I left a longer post over there. Sounds like a lot of fun. Our girls loved the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler last summer, and even made a YouTube Storytube about it. You’ve given me some good ideas for future reads.
Michelle, I’ve just read both your comments. My heart literally jumped to hear all you’re doing. Thank you.
Excellent! You know how I love kids books. I’m headed there now. :-)
I’ll go check it out!
I’ll check it out for sure!!! In the meantime I gave you an award!!! Come check it out here!
Sounds great – I’ll check it out!
I’m heading over now. super!
How does your siteometer tell you that?
I’m going to check it out now!
I liked it a lot; I’m hoping to start some book clubs at my sons’ school. I found you through the comment challenge though; finding that you are an experienced kids book clubber is a bonus.
Beth — keep me posted on the book clubs.
Sharon — Sitemeter has a button that lets you know how someone came to your site (Statcounter, too). If they did a search for a particular subject (in my case, book clubs), you’ll see it all there in front of you.
