Summer Reading One of the best ways for your student to be an awesome reader is to read all year long. That includes the summer! The following link takes you to a recommended reading list compiled by the Baltimore County Public Library. It is a great list because the books on the list are available at the library. The list is divided by grade level. Check it out! http://www.bcpl.info/kidspage/kids_kidslist.html#one Connect to the BCPS Office of Library Information Services http://www.bcps.org/offices/lis/ Connect to Baltimore County Public Library
Book Donations: It is the policy of Baltimore County Public Schools Office of Library Information Services, that no public school library can accept donated books. This includes books from students' families. If you have books that you are wishing to give away, check with some of the local women and children's shelters in the area. They are usually very willing to take them off your hands. Barbara Ann Nozeika Memorial Library FundAfter careful consideration, the funds from the Barbara A. Nozeika Memorial Fund are being used to build a collection of Newbery Medal and Caldecott Medal books for the Eastwood library. The Newbery Medal is awarded to the best young adult book of the year. It has been awarded annually since 1922. Some winning titles are Holes, A View from Saturday, Sounder, and Bridge to Terabithia. The Caldecott Medal is awarded to the book with the best illustrations. It has been awarded annually since 1938. Some winning titles are Three Little Pigs, Officer Buckle and Gloria, Rapunzel, and Black and White. It is the hope that each year we will be able to add the winners to our collection with funds from the Memorial Fund.
