Our fourth week focuses on children’s authors who also blog. A few dozen people are participating this month by reading and sharing reviews on many childhood favorites that were selected in a previous poll. Read from 8/25 to 8/30 and post your review on or before 8/31. Please email or message me if you’re participating or posting a review so I can add you to the list below of blogs to watch. You can add in anything into your post besides a review, e.g. giveaways, author profiles, background material, educational ideas, etc. Have fun with it!
Participating Books / Blogs
- Robbie Cheadle’s “Sir Chocolate” Series
- This Is My Truth Now*
- Maxine Sylvester’s “Ronaldo” Series
- This Is My Truth Now*

I didn’t think I was going to be able to participate this week. I’m not sure how many books are in the Sir Chocolate series but I was able to find 5 of them on Scribd so I will be reading those this week.
