Books about history, science, customs, cultures, peoples of all types – the famous and the not-so – are just a few of the many nonfiction topics available for kids in bookstores and libraries today.
This month, ReaderKidZ focuses on a handful of these for K-5 readers searching for facts, figures, information, and answers.
We’re pleased to welcome Lola Schaefer as our Author-In-Residence the first half of March. Lola’s written many nonfiction books for the educational and trade market, including, most recently, her picture book, JUST ONE BITE and a brand-new teacher resource, WRITING LESSONS FOR THE INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD.
Phyllis Root joins us mid-month to talk about writing her newest book, BIG BELCHING BOG.
