Topic: <b><u>Teen readers. </u></b>We enthusiastically value the participation of teen readers in the Mock Printz. Teen participants have to be willing to read the books (or read most of the books) and then spend an afternoon talking intensively with other
teens and adults about books. That's a "not for me" proposition for a lot of teens, but for just the right people, it is MAGICAL. So, ask around. Maybe you'll find a couple of students who are up for giving it a try!<o:p> </o:p></p>
