Thursday, November 20, 2014. AJL Recommends Hanukkah Books for Children. Heidi's dad playing ukulele by the light of the shamash candle. Over at "People of the Books" (the blog of the Association of Jewish Libraries), they've posted a list of recommended Hanukkah books for children. There are brand new books listed, like one I'm especially excited about: Honeyky Hanukkah. By Woody Guthrie, illustrated by Dave Horowitz, and accompanied by a Klezmatics CD. I interviewed Nora Gurthrie in 2006. Click here to...

Sci/Why: January 2015
http://sci-why.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Canadian children's writers discuss science, words, and the eternal question - why? Old Fossils, New Knowledge – and the Case of the Misplaced Mastodons. About 18,000 years ago, during the last ice age, the Yukon was a menagerie of exotic animals – scimitar cats, giant short-faced bears, and huge, lumbering woolly mammoths, among many others. Until recently, scientists thought those “others” included the mammoth’s distant cousins, mastodons. At that time, when most of Canada was buried in ice, the Yukon ...

Canadian children's writers discuss science, words, and the eternal question - why? I am in Zambia, Africa - on my first safari, in hopes of seeing big game in their own, natural environment. An alternative to a game drive is to take a walking safari. Does a walking safari mean that you can run into lions? In a way, it does. 8220;Look.” He points. “A hyena walked here. He was not in a rush because only the indentation of two middle claws shows.”. One afternoon, we have lunch at Track and Trail River Camp...

Boy Meets Girl — Ridiculousness Ensues. Sources I’m Loving:. Copyedits and formating aren’t always the most fun.

Boy Meets Girl — Ridiculousness Ensues. Before and After Kissing. Lucky to know Elyssa Patrick. She knows more about Romance while she’s napping than I do when I’m straining my brain. And I am just as lucky to have gotten to read her soon-to-be-released book. To the point where last year I said to someone, You need to buy this book I just finished. It’s great and… Oh, wait. It’s not out yet. But it will be soon! Also, don’t forget that tomorrow the Kiss / Kiss-Off Contest opens. Rules HERE. The heroines ...
