Hello!

In celebration of November being Picture Book Month, I am currently working on a story for ALA’s atyourlibrary.org website, which is tentatively titled “30 Days of Picture Books.”  

Do you have a favorite picture book that you think should be on the list? Share your recommendation, and it could be featured on atyourlibrary.org.

How it works:

1.       Select your favorite picture book.

2.       Write a 1-2 sentence teaser that will make parents and kids want to check out the book.

3.       Include your name and library, so we can credit your recommendation on our website.

4.       Send all this information to Megan McFarlane at mmcfarlane@ala.org, with the subject “Picture Book Month – Recommendation.”

5.       All recommendations should be sent in no later than Oct. 28.

The article will be posted on atyourlibrary.org’s Connect with your kids @ your library blog, which is directed at parents and promotes using the resources at the library to spend quality family time together. Content on atyourlibrary.org, including Connect with your kids @ your library, is available for use by librarians under a Creative Commons license.

Questions? Feel free to contact me at either mmcfarlane@ala.org, or by phone at 312-280-2148.

I look forward to checking out your recommendations myself!

Sincerely,

Megan McFarlane
