Amy Cheney, the programming goddess who works in Cali, recently asked those of us on the Yalsa-lockdown listserv “What are the 10 most popular titles right now?” While I can’t speak for the entire school as I am only serving youth at one site this summer, I can say that at that one site, Horizon, the most popular books seem to be:
1) Anything at all by Walter Dean Myers (he just visited and there is nothing on the carts which is driving everyone crazy)
2) Tyrell by Coe Booth
3) Street Pharm by Alison Van Diepen
3) Homeboyz by Alan Sitomer
4) 16 on the Block series by Babygirl Daniels
5) Where’s Waldo
6) The Power of Birthdays
7) Rikers High by Paul Volponi
8) Played by Dana Davidson
9) Anything at all by Ni Ni Simone
10) Random Family by Adrian Nicole LeBlanc
We'll do an official school-wide list this fall. What are *your* top ten? Post in the comments!
