School Library Month is Almost Here

And We're Ready to Celebrate!

Megan McDonald, author of the beloved Judy Moody and Stink books, is the national spokesperson for the 2016 observance of School Library Month!

School librarians not only foster a lifelong love of reading and story, they encourage thinking and creativity. They support curious minds. They inspire young imaginations. School librarians shape lives.

In a PSA recorded especially for School Library Month, Megan speaks to how school librarians transform learning by inspiring and feeding the curiosity of their students. The PSA is freely available for download and distribution.
