Hi, Kate.

Thanks for telling us about Talkin’ Bout Books. I’ve added a link to your blog from Book Group Buzz.

I’ve started a blog with book discussion questions for grades 2-3 and 4-5. Hopefully it will be useful for parents, teachers, and librarians!

Hope to start a K-1 group this winter.

There is also a book called Teen Book Discussion Groups @ the Library (http://www.neal-schuman.com/bdetail.php?isbn=1555704859)which has suggestions and examples. I happened to have written it. I would caution against sets of questions that are too much like just regurgitating material from the book. Book discussions should be as little like school as they can be. They should get at what kids think and wonder and should never elicit right or wrong answers.
