Ask a Librarian: Find the Right Book for Your Child

October 2, 2013 by Betsy Bird   9 comments

So the good folks at Noodle had a proposition for me. Noodle, for the record, is this life-long education related search company started in 2011. They asked me to suggest some recommendations of 2013 in various areas. I obliged, but had no idea how they’d format it.

Well, here are the results and they are really gorgeous. I wish I could take credit for this, but let’s be honest. I couldn’t design my way out of a paper bag.  Nor draw myself.  I mean, I could try but the results would be fairly . . . ugh.  Well done, Noodle-ites.  You can find it here as well.

    I love these types of visual charts. So helpful, bold and friendly to look at. I’m sure parents can navigate this easily. Well done!

    This is AWESOME! How much do I love that little doodle of you!
    You need to put it on a Popsicle stick and turn it into a you puppet.
    This would be a great poster.

      I did love the doodle. I’ve been drawn before and the results were . . . let’s just say they weren’t good. This one’s cute. And I love the idea of sticking it on a Popsicle stick. Hmmm. Maybe for a future video . . . .

    This is brilliant! Is there a way to print it as we’d love to post in our library?

    Thanks for such great recommendations.

      If you follow the link to the original site you can find a pretty high resolution for it. Don’t know how it would print, but I assume that if you have a color printer it might look rather nice. Glad you liked it!
