- Booklist's "Lasting Connections" -- Youth Editor's top 30 books for K-8 classrooms, 2012: Each January Book Links publishes a partner list to Booklist’s Books for Youth Editors’ Choice selections. “Lasting Connections” focuses on the top 30 titles for the K–8 classroom, and in the list, you’ll find titles covering a wide range of subjects, from Aesop’s fables to wild horses (and the scientists who study them), all selected for their natural connections across the curriculum and to the Common Core State Standards.
- A Book and a Hug- Click on the search box and you can find books by category and reading level simultaneously. When you open the Search box (top right hand corner of the homepage), you can click on the category you want (often I'm using this for picture book but you might want action/adventure or humor, etc.) and then scroll down and click on the reading level. So if you want an action/adventure book for an older reader (ages 11-13), you click on Action/Adventure in the Category box and then click on Older Reader in the Reading Level box. Then either hit Search or use the Enter/Return button on your keyboard. Your list of books will return. You can even write your own review.
