Getting to the Core: New Nonfiction

SPONSORED BY: Lerner Publishing Group, DK Publishing, Scholastic Library Publishing, Teacher Created Materials, and School Library Journal.
EVENT DATE AND TIME: Thursday, September 27, 2012, 1:00 - 2:00 PM ET/10:00 AM - 11:00 AM PT
 
If you think that Rudyard Kipling’s Elephant’s Child was justly spanked for his “’satiable curtiosity” do NOT tune in to this webcast—because the informational books our panelists will be featuring are far and away more likely to stimulate that “curtiosity” in today’s young pachyderms than to punish it. For striking insights into some unsolved mysteries of the past and present, stunning glimpses of the animal world’s wonders, and a walloping view of the greatest rivalry in dinosaur studies ever, join us to “talk book” about Dona Herweck Rice’s Unsolved! History’s Mysteries (Teacher Created Materials), Barbara A. Somervill’s Ancient Maya (Scholastic), Super Nature Encyclopedia (DK), and Rebecca L. Johnson’s Battle Of The Dinosaur Bones: Othniel Charles Marsh Vs. Edward Drinker Cope (Lerner/21st Century).
