Hello colleagues:

Of interest ...check out this podcast on getting teens to read from NPR's On Point. The moderator David Ashcroft interviewed David Denby, author of this new book: 

Lit Up: One Reporter. Three Schools. Twenty-four Books That Can Change Lives


From Amazon on the book:  It's no secret that millions of American teenagers, caught up in social media, television, movies, and games, don't read seriously-they associate sustained reading with duty or work, not with pleasure.
