The Class of 2k7 ezine is released quarterly and features information about the debut children’s and young adult authors of the Class as well as useful resources for booksellers, librarians, and educators. The editor of this quarter’s issue is Melissa Marr.
Welcome to Issue #4 of our E-Zine!
This is our final issue of the ezine. In addition to our usual collections of reviews, reports on our activities and upcoming events, we have two articles this time. The first is a discussion of Great Reads for Teenage Boys, and the second is a lovely article looking back over the past year. I hope you enjoy these as much as we have.

What We’ve Been Doing!
The summer of 2007 was sizzling with activity for 2K7 class members. Here’s a sampling of our dog-day doings:
The Class of 2k7 Wants to Share our Reviews
The reviews have been pouring in for books written by Class of 2k7 members and they’re terrific. We’d like to share some of the highlights with you!
Feature: Boy Books
With so many Class of 2k7 authors writing books for boys, we thought we’d close the year with an article on what makes a book a good choice for teen male readers. G. Neri offers both suggestions and questions to ask when making the selection.
