Happy Veterans Day!!

Group of SoldiersHappy Veterans Day!!  Thanks to all who have served.  In honor of Veterans Day I've got some great book suggestions.  

These first three a pictures books that are good for any child.  Picture books are not just for the younger readers, there is lots of ways for older readers to interact with them.  The first picture book is Year of the Jungle by Suzanne Collins.  Click here for a description on Goodreads.  The next is Hero Dad by Melinda Hardin.  Click here for a description on Goodreads.  The last picture book is Love Lizzie: Letters to a Military Mom by Lisa Tucker McElroy.  Click here for a description on Goodreads.

The next three that I'm listing are chapter books, these books are good for those readers in Third Grade and above.  The first is Piper Read: Navy Brat by Kimberly Willis Holt. Click her for a description on Goodreads.  This is actually a series.  The next book is 100 Days and 99 Nights by Alan Madison.  Click her for a description on Goodreads.  The last book is Lily's Crossing by Patricia Reily Giff.  Click her for a description on Goodreads.  This book was a Newbery Honor winner in 1998.

All of these books are available at the Leonardtown Public Library.  At the Hollywood Elementary School Library Media Center we have all of these books available for check out, except Year of the Jungle.  I'm hoping that we have a copy of that book soon.
