Wellington City Libraries has recently introduced a teens blog - you can find it at www.wcl.govt.nz/blogs/teens. Thanks for the links to other teen blogs, I'll check them out.
(I think this might be my first time on a blog!)
I do not blog, but I do have a home-made in NZ website on which I review books for (roughly) 8-15-year-olds. I have been a teacher and have recently begun work as a primary school librarian. I would be grateful if you chose to look at my site, and/or to link to it from yours. The URL is: www.mybookshelf.org.nz
I would love to hear your feedback!
Thanks Anderina - look forward to checking it out. And here's a hyperlink to the site: My Bookshelf.
