It's my great pleasure to introduce one of our very first guest bloggers, six-year-old Charlie Roth, an enthusiastic reader and writer. Charlie has excellent taste in books. And he's inaugurating a new category for the blog: Transitional Books, or books for kids who can read on their own but are not yet tackling middle-grade works. I've been meaning to add this category for some time. Many thanks to Charlie for giving me the perfect opportunity to do so. And now, Charlie's recommendation, entirely in his own words: My favorit book is Because a Little Bug Went Ka-Choo! (Beginner Books(R)) Thank you, Charlie! I can't wait to read it! To return to Julie's website, click here: www.juliesternberg.com/books. And please feel free to post a comment about Charlie's recommendation, or any others, and to add a recommendation of your own. . Ka- choo is a werd. I like it because it's funny. It's by Rosetta Stone and illustrated by Michael Frith. Childrin will love Because a little bug went ka- choo! Because it makes me lagh. And it has funny pichers.
