It made me feel very fond of some people I'd already loved, like Julie Andrews, and some I'd never even thought about, like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Laura Bush, Ralph Nader, and Jamie Lee Curtis. And it made me feel guilty for my snobbery regarding Oprah's book club. Few people have done as much for libraries and literacy as she has, and I don't know, I just feel like maybe I need to give those little stickers a chance. Anyway, if you like librarying or reading or celebrities, read this. It's fun. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Published with the American Library Association, Reading with the Stars uses the power of politicians, celebrities, and other prominent men and women to celebrate books, libraries, and reading. Fourteen of the biggest names in America offer their thoughts on why literature is important and how books have touched their lives. Television icon Oprah Winfrey discusses how library books were her "pass to personal freedom." Microsoft founder Bill Gates discusses his library computerization project. Former Vice President Al Gore addresses the "information ecosystem," including how reading contributes to an informed citizenry. A fun, fascinating gift for any- one who works in the world of publishing, libraries, or bookselling. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
