Comment Challenge

I really like the concept behind this. It gets you out there and in the habit of commenting, taking part in conversations.  I've discovered that even in cyber space I am hesitant to jump in and take part. The Shy takes over. It took some doing to get going with the YA/MG Canadian Reading Challenge, but I did. This will take me a step further into getting out there and sharing my passion. Okay, couch session over. Time to get out there and comment! Go here to learn more :

  2. Thanks, Terry! I've ordered your book for our library and will get one for me, too. Planning some class visits in the next little while (talk about the library, do some booktalks etc etc) want to take in your book, so will be sure to let the teachers know about the guide (and look it it my own self, for my book club kids)!

  7. I'm enjoying the blog-hopping part of the comment challenge. I'm eyeing the Picture Book Challenge, but I'm not sure my kids are up to doing it with me and it's not as much fun without them. Argh, they are getting so old.
