Before I Die

I highly recommend a young adult novel entitled Before I Die. It is set in England and takes you on a journey with the main character as she deals will her illness. I could not put this book down. I read it in two sittings.

New York Times Sunday Nov. 9th.

The NY Times has a wonderful pull out section on children's books. The best selling picture books include Goodnight Goon, Hip Hop Speaks to Children and Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope. I read most of them this weekend and recommend that you also read what children are buying. The best selling list also includes paperback books, chapter book and series. The chapter book that I can recommend is Diary of a Whimpy Kid and The Way We Work For a longer read, I suggest you check out The Book Thief, it is about a young girl saving books from burning in Nazi Germany.
