Booktalks for Chidlren's Fantasy FictionBooktalks

Booktalks for Children's Fantasy Books

Writing booktalks takes a long time. Good thing there are resources like this on the web. This site includes lots of creative ideas for getting the children's attention, too. 

Celebrate Chinese New Year by Carolyn Otto-- a good book to read to children for Lunar New Year. By National Geographic. Great photos, of course.

Here is a great book to read to children for Chinese New Year. It includes great photography by National Geographic staff and includes photos from celebrations all around the world. What I liked is that it has brief phrases you can read to the really young kids and more in-depth explanations you can read to the older children. You can find lots more book suggestions here.
