Book Talk at the Book Stall
SRL's Fall YA Book Talk
Celebrate YA Literature
Sponsored by the Secondary Reading League
We all know that the greatest way to influence our students to become lifelong readers is to introduce them to and provide access to books that will engage them. With that thought in mind, you are cordially invited to the Secondary Reading League's first professional development and social event of the 2017-18 school year. Please join us at The Book Stall in Winnetka on Saturday, October 14th from 9:30 AM -11:00 AM for an opportunity to hear about the latest and most popular YA books and purchase any books at a 20% discount afterward.
Networking, coffee and a variety of muffins and croissants from Peet's Coffee and Tea will be served at 9:30, and the Book Talk will begin punctually at 10:00. The morning will also include collegial conversation, a preview of other upcoming SRL events, and prize drawings. Door Prizes include several baskets of books and a free registration to SRL’s Day of Reading Workshop in November, featuring Penny Kittle.*
You can reserve your spot via the SRL Square and pay in advance (no later than Saturday, October 7th) so that enough seats can be arranged and refreshments ordered. Feel free to bring a friend! The cost is $7 for SRL Members and $10 for non-members.

SPECIAL NOTE: So that we can personalize this Book Talk, please let us know if there are any specific genres, topics, themes, conflicts, etc. that you would appreciate the presenter considering when choosing which books to highlight. Just e-mail these requests to SRL president-elect Erik Borne at eborne@rocketmail.com before October 7th. Also direct any questions you may have about this event to Erik.
Hope to see you there!
