Bookwink's mission is to inspire kids to read.
Through podcasting and web video, we hope to connect kids in Grades 3
through 8 with books that will make them excited about reading. The
videos are approximately 3 minutes long and are updated monthly. Each
video booktalk is about a different topic, and additional read-alikes
can be found on the Bookwink website. You can look for books by subject,
grade level, author or title. We are constantly updating the book lists
with our newest favorite books.
