  • Elementary Catalog 2020 Inspire Teachers and Learners with Outstanding Books
    Elementary Catalog 2020 Inspire Teachers and Learners with Outstanding Books BOARD BOOKS LEVELED READERS SOCIO-EMOTIONAL LEARNING INCLUSIVE TEXTS STEAM NONFICTION FICTION AWARD WINNERS Dear Educators, When a catalog that lists books arrives in my mailbox, I stop everything and browse excitedly through the pages! I can’t resist the pull of learning about books that I can order for my students. The catalog you’re holding now, filled with page after page of outstanding books, from the Penguin Random House family of publishers was developed especially to support you and the children you teach! If you’re like me, you’ll want to choose books for your class library and guided reading groups that focus on students’ interests. Remember to reserve time to include your students in the book selection process. Take a few minutes and ask them to turn-and-talk to a partner about books they’d love to see in their classroom. Then, have students jot on a piece of notebook paper the topics they’re curious about, authors they love, series they want to read, and favorite genres. Adding books students suggest to your classroom collections honors them as readers and shows how much you value and respect their input. The more books your students read and enjoy, the more they’ll improve. Volume and choice in reading matters! Happy reading! Laura Robb EDUCATOR, AUTHOR, AND LITERACY SPECIALIST A classroom teacher for more than 43 years, Laura is the author of more than thirty books on Literacy and the new “Let’s Work Together Teaching Guide” series from Penguin Random House Education.

To that end, I would like to draw your attention to some of the outstanding accomplishments and developments that have taken place for our authors over the last few months: Clifford Jackman’s debut, The Winter Family, has been longlisted for the 2015 Scotiabank Giller Prize. Published by Doubleday in the US, Heyne in Germany and a “New Face of Fiction” for Random House Canada, The Winter Family was called “sadistic but mesmerizing” by The New York Times Book Review, a “chilling tale” by Publishers’ Weekly, and “a philosophical spaghetti western that doesn’t stint on the tomato sauce, served up with flair” by Quill & Quire. Reviewers have repeatedly put Jackman in the company of Cormac McCarthy and James Carlos Blake, and Amazon chose The Winter Family as a Best Mystery/Thriller/Suspense for the Month of April 2015. Chris Gerolmo, seven- time Academy Award nominated screenwriter of ‘Mississippi Burning’ is writing the film adaptation of The Winter Family. Giller Prize-winner Elizabeth Hay is back and at the top of her game with an irresistible new novel, His Whole Life.
