I am crazy about books for kids/teens, well, books in general!
Last week our local independent bookstore hosted a midnight madness sale. We were all thrilled.
Some of the interesting books that I have picked up and that were recommended to us :
Sophie's World (A Novel About the History of Philosophy) by Jostein Gaarder (Norwegian)
City of the Beasts and Kingdom of the Golden Dragon by Isabel Allende - didn't even know that she writes for kids!
If you are not afraid about talking to your kids about death, have them read Oscar and the Lady in Pink by Eric - Emmanuel Schmitt. Kas read it when he was 10 and loved it! It's a tiny book, takes probably less than an hour.
As you can see, I am big on translations.
Will keep you posted about more. Books are my life!
