Here's a great list of books for reluctant readers

I wish I could take credit for this one, but it's over at Unleashing Readers: Top Books for Struggling/Reluctant Middle School Readers. Such a good resource if you're looking for books your kids will actually want to read.

I'll add Babymouse to the list, you know, so I feel like I'm contributing.

Oh, and if you're a parent or educator looking for start-of-school book ideas, check out the #titletalk Twitter chat that was on last night. It was buzzing with brilliant book recommendations from teachers, ideas for sharing the book love in the classroom, encouraging community reading--a wealth of energizing ideas. The chats are archived, so you can read the bazillion Tweets by teachers. Very cool.

Makes me excited for the new school year...
