Thank you, Maureen!  I have that book and I agree!  It is a wonderful new look at the whole picture book.

I also have your book, Lessons Inspired by Picture Books, and I love it!  Thank you for your wonderful ideas for using picture books in the library to meet the standards.  I have been inspired by your very thoughtful work.  

I will definitely check out your oher suggestion, Teaching Talk! Thank you for responding to my question!

Hi, Gail,
If you teach young learners, I highly recommend Reading Picture Books with Children: How to Shake Up Storytime and Get Kids Talking about What They See by Megan Dowd Lambert. 
I promise you will never look at a picture book the same after reading it!
If you want to learn more, I wrote about it on the Knowledge Quest website.

Hi everyone,

I would love to hear your thoughts:

If you had to recommend just one book to read this summer to improve your practice what would it be?  It could be either one you are planning to read or one that has had a significant impact on your teaching.

Also, if you care to comment, this very unusual school year has provided some space for rethinking.  What do you view as your most important role in your school as a school librarian?

Thank you in advance for your thoughts!!

Gail
