MY WISHFUL WEDNESDAY [ 28 ]
Setelah hampir dua minggu ‘merana’ karena
tidak bisa online (komputer, laptop, modem, ponsel semuanya gantian butuh ‘perawatan-khusus’
alias istirahat sementara waktu) alhasil hari ini ketika akhirnya ‘jalur-lalu-lintas-onlinerku’
terbuka lebar dan tepat juga ada event WW-nya mbak Astrid yang kali ini
berkolaborasi dengan miss Bzee untuk ‘special-giveaway’ ... jadilah diriku
Happy plus ‘sumringah’ alias ‘nyengir lebar’ (apalagi klo menang, bakaln
jungkir-balik-koprol deh kayaknya hohoho)
Cara mainnya sama dengan WW sebelumnya, dan
untuk Giveaway kali ini, kita para peserta boleh memilih Hadiah senilai IDR 100
atau $ 10 dari list buku-buku yang tercantum dalam kumpulan review di FMs1,
FMs2 dan FMs3 (langsung aja ‘klik’ di link tersebut dan cari linky tools berupa

baca seluruh persyaratan di postingan Book To Share dan Bacaan Bzee (^_^)

TURTLE IN PARADISE by Jennifer L. Holm
[
source : Postingan mbak Ana ]
Tidak pernah bisa 'menahan-diri' jika melihat tanda 'Newbery Award' di sebuah buku...
Preview :
In Jennifer L. Holm's New York Times bestselling, Newbery Honor winning
middle grade historical fiction novel, life isn't like the movies. But then
again, 11-year-old Turtle is no Shirley Temple. She's smart and tough and has
seen enough of the world not to expect a Hollywood ending. After all, it's 1935
and jobs and money and sometimes even dreams are scarce. So when Turtle's mama
gets a job housekeeping for a lady who doesn't like kids, Turtle says goodbye
without a tear and heads off to Key West, Florida to live with relatives she's
never met. Florida's like nothing Turtle's ever seen before though. It's hot
and strange, full of rag tag boy cousins, family secrets, scams, and even
buried pirate treasure! Before she knows what's happened, Turtle finds herself
coming out of the shell she's spent her life building, and as she does, her
world opens up in the most unexpected ways. Filled with adventure, humor and
heart, "Turtle in Paradise" is an instant classic both boys and girls
with love. Includes an Author's Note with photographs and further background on
the Great Depression, as well as additional resources and websites. Starred
Review, "Kirkus Reviews" "Sweet, funny and superb." Starred
Review, "Booklist" "Just the right mixture of knowingness and
hope . . . a hilarious blend of family drama seasoned with a dollop of
adventure."

Salah satu incaranku untuk melengkapi Newbery Award Reading Challenge

Ann Martin's
phenomenal Newbery Honor book, now in paperback The summer Hattie turns 12, her
predictable smalltown life is turned on end when her uncle Adam returns home
for the first time in over ten years. Hattie has never met him, never known
about him. He's been institutionalized; his condition invovles schizophrenia
and autism. Hattie, a shy girl who prefers the company of adults, takes
immediately to her excitable uncle, even when the rest of the family -- her
parents and grandparents -- have trouble dealing with his intense way of seeing
the world. And Adam, too, sees that Hattie is special, that her quiet, shy ways
are not a disability

Satu lagi incaranku untuk melengkapi Newbery
Award Reading Challenge (^_^)

HOW HAD MRS.
OLINSKI CHOSEN her sixth-grade Academic Bowl team? She had a number of answers.
But were any of them true? How had she really chosen Noah and Nadia and Ethan
and Julian? And why did they make such a good team? It was a surprise to a lot
of people when Mrs. Olinski's team won the sixth-grade Academic Bowl contest at
Epiphany Middle School. It was an even bigger surprise when they beat the
seventh grade and the eighth grade, too. And when they went on to even greater
victories, everyone began to ask: How did it happen? It happened at least
partly because Noah had been the best man (quite by accident) at the wedding of
Ethan's grandmother and Nadia's grandfather. It happened because Nadia
discovered that she could not let a lot of baby turtles die. It happened when
Ethan could not let Julian face disaster alone. And it happened because Julian
valued something important in himself and saw in the other three something he
also valued. Mrs. Olinski, returning to teaching after having been injured in an
automobile accident, found that her Academic Bowl team became her answer to
finding confidence and success. What she did not know, at least at first, was
that her team knew more than she did the answer to why they had been chosen.
This is a tale about a team, a class, a school, a series of contests and, set
in the midst of this, four jewel-like short stories -- one for each of the team
members -- that ask questions and demonstrate surprising answers.
