As you might be able to guess, we love books here at First Book, and we get excited about some of the great titles that we’re able to offer to children in classrooms and programs all across the county through the First Book Marketplace, our award-winning online store.
When you’re excited about something, you want to share it, so welcome to the inaugural First Book Blogger Book Club! We invited some of our favorite book bloggers to read a young adult title that we carry on the First Book Marketplace and post about it on their blog.
February’s book was Slam, Nick Hornby’s story of a teenager unexpectedly facing fatherhood, and his search for wisdom in the autobiography of pro skateboarder Tony Hawk.
Check out the reviews and blog posts about ‘Slam’, and check back later this week when we’ll reveal next month’s title, and tell you how you can get involved.
Links to the participating blogs will appear here as they are posted, so check back and see what our bloggers had to say. And if you’ve read ‘Slam’, leave a comment below and let us know your thoughts.
