Online Serial Novel
Kids are going online week after week to read the next installment in the serial novel The Gecko and Sticky by Wendelin Van Draamen. Van Draamen is the Edgar and Christopher Award-winning author of the popular Sammy Keyes mystery novels for middle grade readers and the Shredderman series for younger readers.
The serial started on the Maricopa County Library District’s Web site January 8th and will run through May 21, 2007. There is an archive of past week’s chapters to catch up on if you are just tuning in. The url is http://www.mcldaz.org. The interactive nature of the novel makes it unique, with activities, Web links, and other information that adds to the experience.
This could be a new way to get kids to read. Thank you Maricopa County Library System for this reading adventure! ¶ 12:32 PM
