About the Teens' Top Ten

Teens' Top Ten is a "teen choice" list, where teens nominate and choose their favorite books of the previous year! Nominators are members of teen book groups in five school and public libraries around the country-the 2007 nominees were chosen by book groups in Connecticut, Kansas, New Jersey, New Hampshire, and Utah, selected for their experience in discussing books.

Video Book Previews

Librarians have the unbridled joy of reading through catalogs with flowery descriptions of new book releases. You, however, have an alternative!

Much like movie trailers, Video Book Previews/Reviews introduce you to a book or author. View “The Book Thief” at right, or choose one of the titles below to watch that video on a new page.

These (and many more) videos are available at Expanded Books.
