[CASL-L] It's Holiday Book List Time!

[Christine Sarrazin]

Hi everyone,

Among all the other things you have on your plates this week, please don't forget to send me (off-list!) your recommendations for your favorite children's & teen books of the year. CLC will use them to put together the best set of holiday book lists yet! Please see my original message below for complete details. Many, many thanks to those who have already sent recommendations. Now I look forward to hearing from the rest of you!

Best,
Christine Sarrazin, CLC

-----------------------

It's time to start assembling CLC's annual holiday booklist, officially known as Children's Books for Holiday Giving. Now is your chance to ensure once again that Connecticut's children will receive some truly wonderful books this December! 

Please email me your recommendations for your favorite recently published (2011-2012) children's or YA books that would be suitable for gift-giving. I will need the following information:
Title & author (& illustrator for picture books)
Your recommended age level:
Babies & Toddlers (ages 0-3)
Young Readers & Listeners (ages 3-8)
Middle Readers (ages 8-12)
Teens (ages 12+ ... if your title is only suitable for older teens, please note that in your description)
A very brief description - what it's about and why it's great, in about 30 words or less!
Your name, library/school & job title, so I can credit you properly.

Send whatever you loved this year - fiction and non-fiction - with a focus on books that would make great gifts. 

The deadline for submissions is Friday, November 16 ... so send 'em in now!  As in the past, I'll use as many recommendations as I can, put them into a reproducible format, and get the files out to you in time for you to distribute to your patrons throughout the holiday season.

Here is a link to prior years' lists:

Thanks in advance for your contributions!

Best,
Christine
