Judy Freeman has more ideas for using children’s literature than almost anyone we know. So, in this volume, she packs songs, reader’s theatre, great book lists, best professional books, good websites and more to attract a librarian and teacher to make reading fun, exciting, creative, ben beneficial to the literacy program of the school. That is how we view this being used. The teacher librarian as a part of the school’s literacy team infuses not just skills into the language arts program but cares about helping children build a love of literature and creative expression. Used alone, such activities are fun but really pointless if connections are not being made with larger literacy goals in mind and in practice. Highly recommended for teachers and teacher librarians on a quest to move beyond just deadly skills.
