| Hello/Kids Reading Return to index of stories... |
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. School's out and summer is here and the state wants students to keep up their reading skills while out of the classroom. Governor Benson recently launched a new summer reading contest called "Read for Reward." It's part of the New Hampshire State Library's Summer Reading Program. This year's theme for the libraries reading list is "Check Out a Hero"-- a catalog of books for all ages about heroes, fictional and real, of all kinds. Any child, pre-school through high school age, that reads 10 books, or is read to for 20 hours will receive a certificate of recognition from the Governor. Also as part of the program, for every book a student reads he or she will be entered into a drawing to win a variety of gift certificates and Grand Prize winners will receive a lap-top commuter purchased with grant money. You can find information,including the suggested reading lists, at libraries throughout the state and online at the Governor's website, www-dot-nh-dot-gov. |
| Intro Summer Reads Return to index of stories... |
With the long holiday weekend upon us -- many of us are ready to stock up on our summer reading material for that perfect day at the beach, or lounging by the lake. Walking into a book store or the library can be a bit daunting -- with so many choices. Here to help us narrow the list are: Adele Boeske , Head of Children's Services at the Derry Public Library --and, Jeff Smull, General Manager, of the "Toadstool Bookshop" in Keene. We've asked both Adele and Jeff to come up with their TOP 10 list --which we'll get to in a moment but first -- Q ADELE : What criteria do you use in selecting your picks for kids? Q JEFF SMULL: In putting together a SUMMER reading list -- what do you keep in mind. Easy read, light --something that doesn't make you work too hard? ======================= |

Q ADELE: Let's take a look at your selections for children K-thru 3rd grade. 1 "A story for Bear" --Dennis Haseley 2 "The Frog Prince" from story by Brothes Grimm 3 "Chapter Books" By Mary Pope Osborne BOOKS for Grades 3-6 1 "Skateboard Tough" by Matt Christopher 2 "Love that Dog" by Sharon Creech 3 "Because of Winn-Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo BOOKS for Grades 6-8 1 "Redwall Series" by Brian Jacques- 2 "The Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien BOOKS for Young Adults 1 "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" by Ann Brashares 2 "The House of the Scorpion" by Nancy Farmer =========== Q ADELE: Any guidelines for parents wanting to help their kids find a book they'll enjoy? ================================== Q JEFF SMULL: Before I ask you for YOUR picks: Any cross over children's books that are enjoyed by adults as well. Harry Potter series comes to mind, any others? "Summer land" Michael chairman?????" Do you sell children's books as well. MUST READ FOR ADULTS: FICTION: 1 " Any Human Heart", by William Boyd 2 " The Rule of Four" by Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thomason 3 "Ordinary Wolve"s by Seth Kantner 4 " The Miracles of Santo Fico", by D.L. Smith 5 "The Curious Incident of the FDog in the Nighttime", by Mark Haddon 6 "Hidden" by Paul Jaskunas NON-FICTION 1 "The Last Best League" 2 "Dress your Family in Corduroy and Denim" by David Sedarais 3 "Shadow Drivers" Robert Kurson 4 "The Lobster Coast" by Colin Woodard ====================================== Q ADELE: What's topping YOUR summer reading list? Q JEFF: "Any Human Heart" is a real favorite of yours, Why? Q Jeff do you find that NH readers want to read LOCAL authors. Do you try to promote regional authors? Q JEFF: Are their TRENDS when it comes to summer reading? Do we wait to dig into to those books we've stockpiled thru-out the year? Q ADELE: Many local libraries have active summertime programs -- with reading lists and even summer reading assigments for schools. Libraries are a real RESOURCE aren't they? Q JEFF: What drives book sales? Q What about BAD reviews -- does that hurt a book's sale? Q ADELE: What about Libraries -- do REVIEWS -- fuel the WAITING list for books. Q JEFF: What about the New Bill Clinton book -- we keep hearing its a best seller. Have they been flying off the shelves? Q What about those of us who love HISTORICAL novels -- any new reads we should be keeping in mind? ADELE: Any CLASSICS you're recommending this summer. Books to RE-READ? Q JEFF: The Da Vinci code -- a big success. Some other Dan Brown books are worth taking a look at: "Angels and Demons" for example. Anything you think will become the next big seller -- like The DaVinci Code? Any real clunkers -- that you would steer people away from? Or are books, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder? |
