Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

Women's History Tours of the Twin Cities
In recognition of Women's History Month, this slim little book provides biographical sketches of women who have played important roles in Minnesota history, from the early days to current times. Written by Gretchen Kreuter, and a bit uneven in spots, it may still be a resource for History Day projects, or a social studies unit on women in Minnesota.
