European Authors in a Nutshell
The ninth International School Library Day will be held on 22 October 2007. To celebrate this day, IASL (International Association of School Libraries) invites school libraries to organize special activities. IASL also provides the annual theme which this year is ’Learning: powered by your library’. Sahel Academy is joining these events for the first time.
A display, ‘European Authors in a Nutshell’, has been set up this week through next Tuesday (Oct. 23rd) in the main and side corridor in the secondary building. Except for the Dutch books, all books on display are from the library. Commonly read authors like Brian Jacques,
James Herriot, and E. Nesbitt are presented. Some less known authors such as Jules Verne, Astrid Lindgren, Cervantes, Arthur Ransome and Annie MG Schmidt are also to be explored! Hopefully, students will discover some new interesting authors and their works, broaden their horizon, and take the challenge of reading various European literature.
