Every week Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books (http://www.crazy-for-books.com/) hosts a blog hop. Put your link in, post a comment and you can discover a lot of great blogs. Make sure you leave a comment on the blogs you find it helps drive up traffic for my fellow book bloggers. The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week. This week's question/task: Post a link to a favorite post or book review that you have written in the past three months. Hmmmmmmmmmm! I have to think on that one.........(Jeopardy theme music )playing in my head).........(more thoughts of Jeopardy)............(I've never been good at Jeopardy).....I think I got it. Recently, I let my 10-year-old brother post on my blog. (http://asiturnthepages.blogspot.com/2010/09/guest-post-courtesy-of-my-little.html) Obviously, I didn't write the post, but it's been so long since I've seen him read a book. He thinks reading is for girls, despite what I tell him. It took money, to get him to read a book outside of school. Regardless of the method, I'm glad he read something!
Here are a few blogs I came across:

Thanks everyone for your comments. I'm organizing my schedule and driving route for Brooklyn Book Fest
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm sopping by via the hop- this if my first visit. I love your flower header and you have everything so organised and easy to find. It was a great idea to bribe your brother and let him post. I have a ten year old brother but fortunatly he loves reading naturally!
ReplyDeleteHappy hopping, I'm a new follower :)

Hi! I'm a new follower from the hop, I'm actually number 101! :) I think it's great that you encouraged your brother to read and that you let him post on your blog - it's awesome by the way! I'm a teacher so I think it's super important for kids to be reading. If he likes Wayside School there are others in the series, there is a little bit easier series called My Weird School by Dan Gutman. Or what about Roald Dahl? Love him!
ReplyDeleteI know im late with this. Just wanted to stop by and say hi. this is my first hop. Great site! This is so much fun. I will participate more. Come visit me at http://readforyourfuture.blogspot.com/
