Miss Henry's Bookshelf

Since I can't sleep and school starts soon, I decided to create a new blog. I love blogging! I've created Miss Henry's Bookshelf (http://www.misshenrysbookshelf.blogspot.com/). It even has a picture of a bookshelf with cool books on it. I love it!

I know there are a lot of people out there, kids and adults, who say they aren't readers. I however, think that there is a reader in all of us. It's just a matter of finding the right book at the right time. In my two years as an elementary school librarian, I have seen firsthand what the right book can do for a child. It's amazing to see a student find a love for reading that previously didn't exist.

I thought this would be a great place to showcase some books for kids (specifically the Pre-K through 6th grade range). I will be posting things such as literary reviews, my own reviews (when I have time to actually read a book), kids reviews and other fun stuff about new books, old books, cool authors and illustrators and other random reading information that kids will like.

It will be a family friendly site that the kids can enjoy. I will include all types of books: fiction and non-fiction, picture books, chapter books, cookbooks, fun books, serious books, graphic novels, scary books and silly books. You name it, I'll try to get it on there.

In the meantime, it's a work in progress, so add it to your list of favorite blogs and join the adventure in reading.

Hope to see you soon!

Another 2nd Job

I start my new part-time job this afternoon. I can't wait. It sounds like fun. I will be working for the Laguna Playhouse doing telemarketing for their season ticket office. The current season looks great! They have musicals and comedies.

Visit their website at www.lagunaplayhouse.com

The theatre is super small so every seat is a good seat. If anyone is interested in season tickets, let me know!
