Summer Reading Program: Universe of Stories (4)

The past couple weeks I've talked about programming ideas.

You can find them here.

But this week, I'm going to talk about some space books. This is by no means a compilation of books, just a jumping off point if you're looking for some new items to add to your collection. 

Universe of Stories: Teen Summer Reading Program (4)

The past couple weeks I've talked about programming ideas.

You can find them here.

I've decided to do something a little different this year for my teen summer reading program.

Mary and I are going to do food programs once a week - it's going to be The Summer of Oreos. It was partly inspired by the marbled Oreos and an Oreo cookbook. We will also be doing a craft program every Friday with Galaxy Soap, Alien/Space perler beads, All things Marvel, All things Star Wars, and making Lava Lamps.

But this week, I'm going to talk about some space books. This is by no means a compilation of books, just a jumping off point if you're looking for some new items to add to your collection. 

 

 What other books would you add to this list?

Picture Book Review: Mae Among the Stars

This book is inspired by Mae Jemison's Life - she was the first Black woman in space.

I loved this book from the amazing illustrations to the dream of a little girl. Of course I loved the library scene. I love the Mae followed her dreams, worked really hard, and never gave up. She believed in herself and she accomplished her dream. Such an inspiring read!

Perfect for public and school libraries.
