If it wasn't for being a hocke...Hi Gregory,<br /> If it wasn't for being a hockey player or principal I think this post could have been mine! I totally can identify with what you are saying because that was me! Is me!<br /> After reading the Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller, I realized how, after all my years of teaching, I hadn't read nearly enough children's literature that was right there in front of me in our classroom library. In order to recommend books to my students, to get them excited about reading...I need to know what's in these delicious books. <br /><br />So now, in these last few weeks, I am reading as many children's books as I can. There is a whole world of children's literature out there waiting for adults like me (who teach) to explore!<br />Thank you for restating that same idea!<br /><br />I just bet your school LOVES when you come around with books in hand to read a story - what a treat for all!<br /><br />Thank you for your great post!Nancy Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17785303835521700957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6552405311663990394.post-76332485176639461842011-08-06T13:51:37.747-05:002011-08-06T13:51:37.747-05:00Gregory, I am inspired by re-reading your post.

I am definitely sharing this post with my children's literature students, soon-to-be elementary teachers. <br /><br />Thank you again for sharing!<br /><br />DeniseDenise Krebshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00583406241247334445noreply@blogger.com
