2007 REMEMBERED

Before starting this New Year, take a moment to think back on things we learned in 2007:The polar ice cap is melting, Hillary is vying for the presidency, and Michael Vick is not the “all star” we once thought. On a good note, authors, directors, actors, and musicians have been really busy churning out some great stuff. Here’s just a smattering of what entered the teen area in 2007...

Books:
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne
Eclipse by Stephanie Meyer
Finding Lubchenko by Michael Simmons
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah
The Year the Gypsies Came by Linzi Glass


Movies:
Planet Earth
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The Simpsons Movie


Music:
G. Love and Special Sauce, Air, India Arie, Timbaland, Modest Mouse, Bright Eyes, The Killers, Artic Monkeys, Avril Lavigne, White Stripes, Kelly Clarkson, Band of Bees, Rascal Flats, and Zero 7
