Several weeks ago we invited
ExchangeEveryDay readers to
recommend books you have read recently. I have compiled all your suggestions, plus a few more that Bonnie and I have read in the meantime and have posted the
full list on our website. As a teaser, however, here is a sampling of the books you liked:
- The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein
- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
- The Earth Hums in B Flat by Mari Stachan
- The Help by Kathryn Stockett
- Killer Smile by Lisa Scottoline
- The Little White Car by Danuta de Rhodes
- Taking Back Childhood by Nancy Carlsson-Paige
- Whatever it Takes: Geoffrey Canada's Quest to Change Harlem and America by Paul Tough
One of the most beautiful and inspiring Exchange books is
From My Side: Being A Child by Sylvia C. Chard and Yvonne Kogan. The book celebrates the authors' lifelong travels to countries throughout the world. Over 200 full-color photographs illustrate how children learn from their environment when they are engaged in everyday life activities. Ideal for home and school, educators, and parents.

The book From My Side: Being A Child looks very inspirational. I feel that children don't have the opportunities that children had years ago to play outside and explore their environment. Some parents are afraid to send their children outside because they are afraid for their safety. Other children sit inside glued to the television or play video games for long periods of the day. Being an avid photographer, the pictures look like they would be incredible.
