I loved the structure of this: recommending titles based on moods or very specific interests, rather than just general genre. And yes, she did also recommend all my runner up favorites. She highly recommended the 4 most cherished books of my childhood/teen years that are not the world's most popular books: Gone Away Lake, The Saturdays (and sequels), And Both Were Young, and Mr and Mrs Bo Jo Jones. Sure there were lots of books she recommended that I agreed with. Because Nancy Pearl is a true kindred spirit when it comes to books. I guess I don't typically read readers advisory book just because I never run out of anything to read. It seems odd that I had never read this before-every librarian knows who Nancy Pearl is. What’s good, what’s not, and what’s going to hold their interest? Popular librarian Nancy Pearl points the way in Book Crush. It starts when the kids are toddler and doesn’t end until high-school graduation. Parents, teachers, and librarians are often puzzled by the unending choices for reading material for young people.
From picture books to chapter books, YA fiction and nonfiction, Pearl has developed more smart and interesting thematic lists of books to enjoy.
Pearl offers more than 1,000 crush-worthy books organized into over 100 recommended reading lists aimed at youngest, middle-grade, and teen readers. In Book Crush, popular librarian and reading enthusiast Nancy Pearl reminds us why we fell for reading in the first place-how completely consuming and life-changing a good book can be. Do you remember your first book crush? You know, the first time a book completely captured your imagination, transported you to a magical place, or introduced you to a lifelong friend you will never forget?
