I spend a lot of time each week exploring links about kids’ books and links about reading. I read publisher’s reviews, as well as reviews from library publications and reviews from my online Instagram friends to learn about the new books, or to bring old favorites to mind. I also follow some amazing teachers who find time in their busy days to share their thoughts about reading in their blogs. There’s so much wonderful information out there, but so little time to really explore! And definitely, not enough time in the day for you, I’m sure, between your families and your jobs, to read every interesting article, blog, etc. Therefore, I’ve decided to share some of my recent favorite links about reading, from my favorite blogs. If this is something you like, I’ll continue to share from time to time. Here we go!

More about Susan

Hi! I'm Susan, a wife, a mom and a recently retired elementary school librarian with 22 years of experience. One of my greatest joys is to connect kids with a perfect book, which then leads them to a lifelong love of learning. Through my blog, I'm hoping to reach parents, their children and teachers to help them find those special books. I’m also hoping to offer some tips and techniques to use with your children as you read aloud.
