The Battle of the Books 2014-2015



Each school year, the librarians in my district host a reading competition between schools.  Participation varies from school to school.  The reading list is compiled from two award nominee lists: the Sasquatch Awards and the Young Readers' Choice.
 
I use these lists to create my own reading list during the year.  It gives me an opportunity to discover new titles and authors.  I also have others I can discuss characters and plots.
 
This year as I looked at my list, I realized there were several books I had already read and reviewed:
 
Wonder by R. J. Palacio

 
Liar and Spy by Rebecca Stead


I look forward to reading through the rest of the lists and sharing my finds with you.
