Just One More Book Bash

My friends over at Just One More Book are celebrating their 400th podcast. That’s pretty amazing, isn’t it?

Go give the 400th podcast a listen as they reflect and share their love of Picture Books with the world (oh, yeah, and I sent them a short piece on a book with a summer theme that I love called Weslandia by Paul Fleischman).

And consider sending in your own review of a favorite picture book. They are very open to guest reviews and encourage your participation in the friendliest of ways.

Peace (in celebration),
Kevin

Book Review: The Lost Hero

about 1 year ago - No comments

When The Lightning Thief first came out, I devoured it, and then introduced it to my students, who devoured it, too. My sons loved it, too, as we read each book as a read aloud. I thought writer Rick Riordan’s use of Greek Mythology mixed with action and adventure — along with liberal humor told More >

Book Review: Everything Explained Through Flowcharts

I’m one of those readers who loves non-traditional books. Give me something odd, and I am all over it. This is one of those books.

For years, my pet peeve was that darned packaging around CDs. First of all, it would tear at my fingers trying to get it open. Second, I was left with more plastic and cardboard than CD case, and so every purchase of music felt as if I were germinating the local landfill. This week, I More >

Scott McLeod has launched a contest of sorts at his blog, Dangerously Irrelevant, in which folks are asked to write a book review by adhering to the Twitter-concept of 140 characters.

The wonderful children’s book blog — Just One More Book — published another of my reviews of favorite picture books. This one is called The Three Pigs and it is written by David Weisner.

Edublogs now allows users to insert javascript, iframes and other embeddable objects and I am testing it out here with the newly rediscovered (thanks to Twitter friends) Shelfari, which is a social book-sharing network site. Peace (in books), Kevin

I submitted another picture book podcast review to the Just One More Book blog/podcast site and it was published this morning. I love the site for its rich content and interest in the world of children’s books. Anyway, I reviewed the book called Madlenka by Peter Sis. It’s an interesting book in which a little More >

Rock On, Dan Kennedy

I just read the book Rock On by Dan Kennedy, which is a humorous and scathing look at the music industry from inside (Kennedy worked for a major music company as a mid-level manager). It is a fun read and full of interesting bits and pieces of humor writing (such as top lists, such as More >
