We're moving! Yes, for years we have hosted our picture book events using Jog the Web to collect posts to make a resource. It seems Jog the Web is gone so we're moving to a new home. You can find our event hosted in our new Google Community page.
Our February Nonfiction Event
It's that time of year! Time to dig through your nonfiction picture book collections to find the 10 titles you just can't live without. This is our 3rd annual nonfiction event. I know I'm excited to see the selections and posts about favorite nonfiction titles. The event will be Thursday, February 19th (because 1 + 9 is 10...yes, I know the one is in the tens place, but let's play along with it).
In 2010 Mandy Robek and I hosted our first picture book event. In 2013, Julie Balen suggested we add a nonfiction picture book event that worked the same. Participants choose 10 - well, usually 10 (they're a crafty bunch) - nonfiction picture books to share. In the past we have rounded up the posts into a magazine-like jog at Jog the Web. This year, on the day of the event, we'll ask that you visit the Google Community site to add your nonfiction link to the 2015 #nf10for10 tab. We will also suggest that you leave the link on one of our blogs in the comment section, just in case we have to move again.

ReplyDeleteI left a comment earlier-and for some reason, it didn't show up!
ReplyDeleteThanks for creating a new home via Google! It's user friendly! Love the logo design as well!
I LOVE this idea because I have been trying to get my city's school librarians to do this & it never has happened so I'm really looking forward to your suggestions!
