"The world of reading opens when a child chooses a book that she wants to read. The first step to turning a child into a reader is CHOICE!" - Laura Robb
Author and veteran teacher Laura Robb knows a thing or two about encouraging kids to embrace reading. That's why we're thrilled to announce she'll be joining us for a Twitter chat next week on the subject of summer reading and the power of choice! While this chat is primarily for teachers, librarians, parents, readers, and more are welcome to join!
Details below. We hope to see you there!
