Announcing the Fall 2005 Kids' Book Sense Picks

The Fall 2005 Children's Book Sense Picks can now be previewed at news.bookweb.org/read/3746. Stores with Book Sense will begin receiving the Children's Picks fliers, which are mailed directly from the printer, beginning next week. Additional copies may be requested by sending an e-mail to [email protected].

This list is the result of the extensive participation of independent booksellers nationwide, and Book Sense extends many thanks to all who sent in nominations.

Booksellers are encouraged to take photos of their displays featuring selections from this Picks list and to share them with Book Sense staff. They are a wonderful addition to the presentations Book Sense makes to publishers about the program. Photos may be in print or digital format. Digital photos, approximately 3" x 5" and 300 dpi, saved as JPEG or TIFF files, can be e-mailed to Christine Babcock at [email protected]. Multiple pictures may be sent as a stuffed file (.sit). PDF or ZIP files should not be sent, but photos saved on a ZIP disk are acceptable.

Looking ahead, the deadline for the Book Sense Fall History Top Ten is Friday, August 26. For more on this list click here.

Nominations may be sent in an e-mail, including just a few sentences about the title, to Book Sense Picks Editor-in-Chief Dan Cullen at [email protected] or through a convenient Web form at www.bookweb.org/read/6305.
