...as selected by the students.
MP2 and MP3 students (Grades 7 & 8) were asked to pick their
favourite authors from a list of those whose books had been rated
'9' or '10' at least once on their "book-rating sheets". Each student
could vote for a maximum of ten authors. Each author's name is linked
to a page on Amazon.co.uk showing search results for that author. From there
it's easy to browse through his or her titles, read the reviews, and pick
one that sounds good.
