Meanwhile, over at Inside a Dog
The Centre for Youth Literature’s website, Inside a Dog, is busy and about to get busier. James Roy has been writer in residence for a week now, and his blog is inviting students to comment on a variety of thoughts, including their favourite animal book. James will be around for a little longer on the site, so point your readers in his direction. While they are there, they could try writing a book review in haiku.
And the 2008 Inky Awards are being launched tomorrow. Now in their second year, these awards are looking for the teenage vote. Last year’s winners will be there - Simmone Howell (Notes from the Teenage Underground) in person and John Green (Looking for Alaska) via YouTube.
We’ll let you know the lists as soon as they are announced, but you can also subscribe to Read Alert, the blog from CYC to keep informed.
