Viewing Post from: Fairrosa's Reading Journal
From Jan. 2007 to Jan. 2009, I'll be reading many children's books (for 0-14 of age) for the Notable Children's Books Committee. I'll only blog books that I feel strongly about: most positively, occasional the ones that trouble me in one way or another. Once again, these are not book reviews, nor book summaries. They are my personal reactions.
I'm also known online as fairrosa. And in the virtual reality game world GoKrida, I go by the name xiaomu. I have two Masters Degrees: one in Children's Literature and one in Library and Information Science. I have the good luck to have a job that I truly love: I'm a Middle School Librarian at a school where reading is valued and many students are avid and thoughtful readers. The one thing that really excites me is to get someone, young or not so young, to read and enjoy a fantastic book and share my enthusiasm!

Pure adrenaline inducing 381 pages of fun. I'm so glad that the level of action and humor is maintained throughout the entire series -- that the last book did not suddenly become some deep philosophical revelation. (I definitely did not get into these books for their messages or meanings.) It's been quite a craze here at the school and the waiting list of eager readers is mighty long, deservingly so.
