A Season of DaringGreatly
While this novel sometimes feels more like a script for a TV show, without a fully realized plot, it is still a good candidate for collections needing more positive depictions of characters who advocate against gender bias.
A must-have for all YA collections.
Ferocious Fluffity: A Mighty Bite-y Class Pet
A great read-aloud for storytime and classrooms about to meet a new pet.
The Girl in the Picture
Teens will enjoy the cleverly crafted ride of this whodunit. Purchase for libraries looking to bolster their YA mystery collections.
So, You Want To Be a Leader?: An Awesome Guide to Becoming a Head Honcho
A worthwhile purchase for tween and teen self-help sections for the sheer amount of information contained and the inspiration it can provide.-Marie Drucker, Hewlett-Woodmere Public Library, NY
An extremely thorough look at many different types of leadership positions--political, spiritual, law enforcement, entrepreneurial, and more. "Spotlight" and "VIP Profile" bios introduce real-life leaders, historical and contemporary, famous and non-famous. The absence of photos makes the volume less appealing than it could be, but readers not put off by a dull appearance will glean inspiration. Reading list, websites. Glos.
Explore Greek Myths!: With 25 Projects
An additional purchase for libraries, but useful for classrooms studying ancient Greek history and mythology.
Currents
Unless a collection is really hurting for dystopian romances, librarians should encourage readers to reach for something more substantial.
