WORKSHOP ON NEW BOOKS FOR TEENS

Posted Monday, May 18, 2009 by Anonymous, Library Vendor

The lively all-day workshop covers recently published books for teens plus related activities, promotion ideas, and web/print resources.  My audiences usually include librarians and English teachers, who give the day excellent evaluations, which I'd be happy to share with anyone who is interested.

I've been giving the workshop, updated each year, for the past seven years.  I'm a former school and public librarian, an author of guides to children's books, previously a Newbery Award chairperson, and a current book reviewer.

For more information on the workshop and on me, here are two links:
