@AnnaWhateley@AllenAndUnwin Pick #5 - Taking Down Evelyn Tait by @PoppyNwosu (@wakefieldpress).
A fantastic opportunity to discuss authentic building of character and what coming of age really means. Great to explore acceptance of self.

Pick #4 - Peta Lyre's Rating Normal by @AnnaWhateley (@AllenAndUnwin).
A beautiful story on what it looks like if you're unapologetically your authentic self.
#CBCAVic
Picks 1 and 2 (Crime) - Deep Water by @SarahLEpstein and None Shall Sleep by @elliemarney (both @AllenAndUnwin) which upend crime and removes adults as the central detectives.
Interesting structures, trauma, and moral ambiguity. As well as fascination with fear :)

Pick #4 - The Year the Maps Changed by @danielle_binks
(@HachetteKidsANZ)
'Tear rating of 3. It is so beautiful. It is so stunning I loved it from start to finish.' Nuanced. This books really looks at the shades of gray without telling readers what to think.

The message is loud and clear - improved student outcomes in literacy, improved reading outcomes and increased reader engagement etc does not happen by chance but by teacher planning and Teacher Librarians are the expert in the room #literacysummit2020
We are the most important people in students reading motivation by modelling our reading life - both our reading strengths and our reading challenges #literacysummit2020@aslanational via @LiTracey

How do you encourage passion about reading? Ensure a well resourced school library, a qualified teacher librarian who is able to lead the school in reading for engagement @4corners@mscott@NeedSchoolLibs
Every staff member in school libraries is important and has an important role to play in the education and wellbeing of our students. #StudentsNeedSchoolLibraries
