Summer 2018 book recommendations





While at this years 2018 School library Association Conference in Glasgow in June, I took a notion and asked the publishers reps to recommend a few books for my pupils in my two schools to read at the S2- S3 level. And I recorded them doing this! I've pieced them together as a 6 minute book suggestion trailer to share with pupils in my two schools to inspire them into finding something new to read. Please feel free to share this and use it. There are some great suggestions and recommendations, and all the reps were very enthusiastic to be part of the trailer. A huge thank you to them and I hope you are inspired to read some of these books :0)
