Group Book: Witchlings by Claribel A. Ortega
Liveshow date TBD
Prompts:
Tier 1, Beginner:
1. Read a book that feels seasonal to you (can be cozy, spooky, spring-themed if youre in the Southern hemisphere, etc.) If you don’t read seasonally, choose a book with seasonal colors on the cover!
2. Read a book by a Latin American author.
3. Read a book nominated for an award or listed on a reading list other than the Newbery Award. (You can still choose a book that has made the Newbery list! It just has to also appear on another list or award.)
Here are some resources to help find options!
https://www.bookconnections.org/
Type in the book you’re interested in and look to see if it has anything listed under State Lists or Awards.
https://www.ala.org/awardsgrants/awards/browse/yma?showfilter=no
https://www.ala.org/awardsgrants/awards/browse/rlist?showfilter=no
ALA has some great databases like these for looking up different children’s book awards.
Reading Vlog which includes lots of other options: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzyYk-d_eRY
Tier 2, Challenge:
Complete the 3 Beginner prompts PLUS
4. Read a friend and/or book blogger’s recommendation
5. Read a book in a series
6. Read a book that counts towards a goal or project you have (this can be a very loose goal, i.e., “read more historical fiction”, “read my owned TBR”, etc.)
7. Read a book by an author you love
8. Read a book in a genre you dont read as often in Middle Grade
9. Read a book from a previous TBR (doesnt have to be specifically a Middle Grade Magic TBR)
10. Read a book featuring Latin American folklore or mythology.
Google Doc with all this info: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fxJt2MQqzXA5OxFNpxAm8WopzO86_QZs8ArK4rC_YsY/edit?usp=sharing
