[aisle] Novelist or Teachingbooks

[Amy Phillips]

It sounds like you'd be better helped by TeachingBooks than NoveList. My
school doesn't use either one, but I know NoveList is more of a reader
search tool -- finding readalikes and such -- rather than a teaching tool.
TeachingBooks would have more of those extension activities (from what I
remember from seeing them pre-pandemic at ALA). And I know TeachingBooks
tends to do free trials, which might be helpful to see if what they have is
actually useful to you too.

Hope this helps!
