Youth Advisory Council -- Book Recommendations

This group actively assists Russo's Books in selecting youth titles, planning and hosting events, displaying merchandise, and promoting literacy within our community. 

They also recommend great reads.  To find out what various Council members enjoy reading, click on their name.  You may also wish to explore cool websites such as www.bibliobabe.com/teens.php

NOTE:  Students select titles they have enjoyed without Russo's consent or oversight.  You and your child may or may not find recommended titles interesting and/or age appropriate.

10 a.m. first Saturday of month: all budding teen authors are invited our Young Writer's Group.  Click here for our blog.
