- W2228308154 abstract "As David Lubar once said, Teens are trying to make sense of the world. But that's an impossible task. The world that doesn't make sense.... As a reader, I know HI find the world I want in a book. (1) The importance of Teen Read Week[TM] (TRW) is to usher new readers into the library and fascinate them with the wealth of opportunities to become someone else--look through the world with new eyes and imagine themselves as a supernatural creature. Fantasy fiction asks the question, if changing into someone else were possible.? The 2008 TRW theme of Books with Bite offers a panoply of books with supernatural themes. From Darren Shafts Cirque de Freak series to Annette Curtis Klause's Blood and Chocolate, the vibrant characters and spine-tingling stories are opportunities to snare new readers. School libraries can highlight their collection, promote curricular goals, and advocate for teen literacy during their TRW celebrations. Programming ideas for TRW vary from the simple to the elaborate. One way to add dynamic displays to your library would be to ask students to design a read-alike list and feature the books with their reviews next to them, like various bookstores that show staff favorites. The programming opportunities for TRW this year are vast and malleable. If you have a FFA club (or the equivalent), you could host a cooking demonstration of locally grown produce with a prize for the most original and biting flavor. Displays of cookbooks, science, and other how-to books can highlight the nonfiction collection. Using a character from one of your favorite Books with Bite, host a recipe contest and have teens bring in their favorite treats. Furthermore, a recipe contest paired with prizes from local restaurants can inspire even the most lukewarm reader. If your local newspaper has a restaurant reviewer or a recipe column, invite the writer to the library to be the judge. Local cooking schools or TV food shows would also be good partners or resources to consider when planning your event. Taking the Books with Bite theme in a more animalistic direction, find out if your local zoo, state park, or museum has any exhibits that would involve dinosaurs, ancient creatures, or related animals subjects. You could host a visit from a park ranger or museum curator or promote the museum with free passes for the students (call and find out if they have student days or hours). Since teens are already devouring vampire and monster books, whether graphic novels or series fiction, highlight those titles that are always checked out of the library and host a trivia game with bite-size candy for prizes. The most popular read-alike list for Books with Bite will be for those readers who are enraptured with vampire characters and the teenage girls who love them, such as Edward and Bella from the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. TRW can be a publicity campaign for your library and can give your students a fresh tour of the collection. Novels with compelling characters can practically sell themselves to the reader. When I worked in an independent bookstore, I used to interview the prospective buyer in much the same way that librarians facilitate the readers' advisory questions: What are your favorite books? What hobbies and interests do you have? Which authors do you like? Developing booklists from the movies, music, and affinities of your teen readers will make your TRW event and your library more inviting. Information Power states, A student who is an independent learner is information literate and appreciates literature and other creative expressions of (2) If you have students that enjoy technology (and most of them cannot live without it), invite the students to create a blog or Web page with their favorite books that relate to the TRW theme. Like their colleagues at public libraries, school librarians put the essential materials into the hands of teens, whether it's books, websites, or simply access to the most accurate, reliable information. …" @default.
