Two highly anticipated children/ young adult books were released yesterday. The first is Rick Riordan's latest novel (and the first in a new series) titled Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Book 1: The Sword of Summer. I had the privilege of meeting Riordan several years ago at the FAME (Florida Association for Media Education) conference- what a nice man! The second book that was released yesterday is the third book in James Ponti's Dead City series titled Dark Days. Dead City, the first book in the series, was an SSYRA title last year and my students and staff have been eagerly awaiting this 3rd installment. I was honored to meet James Ponti last year at FAME- he was even kind enough to video a message for my students. I am looking forward to seeing him at FAME again this year.
Several other new titles are being released over the upcoming weeks. I'll try to keep you posted!
