Below, please find a list of notable children’s books for 2012 ~ this is one of our librarian’s favorite lists!

What To Read This Summer… The Howard Elementary library is working on collaborative projects with the Santa Clara/River Road Volunteer Library for next year. Over the summer, Santa Clara / River Road Volunteer Library will have a Saturday morning reading program for children. The program will run from July 7 through August 11, 10:00-11:30 every Saturday morning. http://howard.4j.lane.edu/2012/04/27/readinglist/

Summer Reading Program 2012

Daryl Grabarek, School Library Journal for Curriculum Connections After reading about everyone's summer reading plans, that familiar refrain kept bouncing around my head ("Something old, something new....). Like most lists there is plenty of old here (classics still unread); new (books with summer pub dates); borrowed (from friends and libraries) and even something blue (see A.S. King).

from Wildlife Promise Children's books have been moving away from the outdoors for decades, but one summer reading list includes a number of books about nature (flickr | Librarian In Black) We’ve all read a lot about our kids and how we are raising a generation of indoor children glued to their electronic devices. We know that the reduction in outside play time is hurting kids both mentally and physically. But I recently learned of another culprit that is contributing to our children’s lack of connection with the natural world. http://blog.nwf.org/2012/05/summer-reading-to-inspire-outdoor-time-for-kids/
