The Newbery Library

The Newbery Library. Interactive site created by school children lists Newbery books, provides summaries and quizzes, and offers short biographies of some authors.



From the site:



Our project is an interactive site in which we have quizzes, lists of Newbery books, author biographies and summaries of the books. Our page is a virtual reality library where you will experience the qualities of a real library including a librarian, books, an audio recording in 11 different languages, video recordings and quizzes. In one room of the library, you will be able to read about the creators and coaches. As part of our project, we include a history of the Newbery medal from its creation to modern day criteria. For the young author, we have writing tips. For the educator who needs ideas, we have a part of our site devoted to our classs Newbery related projects. Our page is a key resource for any learner interested in the Newbery Medal.
