This is a little off our subject area, but does anyone know of any helpful
sites or books which would help someone to lead a children's book
discussion?

The leader will be discussing the Pee Wee Scouts series by Judy Delton with
first through third graders.

She has found sites listing Judy Delton's titles and a little background,
but nothing about discussion questions or activities.
Thank you, Katherine Hoylo

I don't know if the books you are discussing are covered in this, but you
may be able to use a series of literature units put out by Teacher Created
Materials. Frank Schaffer also puts out a smaller version of this called
"Literature Notes". I use these every summer for my book clubs. Any store
that carries teacher materials should have these.
