It's Coming: Our 5th Annual Nonfiction Picture Book 10 for 10 Event

Our February Nonfiction Event
It seems like just yesterday we were planning our August Picture Book 10 for 10 lists and preparing our classrooms for a new school year.  Now here we are turning the corner on another year.  That means it's time to get ready for February's Nonfiction Picture Book 10 for 10 event (#nf10for10).  This year will be our 5th annual nonfiction event.  Nonfiction Picture Book 10 for 10 allows the opportunity to bring our community together to share our favorite nonfiction picture books.  I don't know about you, but I feel like this is a genre that just keeps getting better and better.

What is #nf10for10
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.  On the day of the event, we'll ask that you visit the Google Community site to add your nonfiction link to the 2017 #nf10for10 tab.
  • What:  10 nonfiction picture books you can't live without.
  • Hashtag:  #nf10for10
  • Who:  Anyone interested --- educators, media specialists, librarians, parents, and book lovers.  
  • When:  Friday, February 10th
  • Where:  All posts will be linked on the 2017 #nf10for10 page of our Picture Book 10 for 10 Google Community Site.  
  • How:  Stop by our community site, join the community, and share your favorites on February 10th.  
So....

Join us!

Start sorting through your collections to find your favorite titles and join us in one month as we each share 10 nonfiction picture books we just can't live without.  Feel free to grab the #nf10for10 button and spread the word.
