I teach children's literature (among other things!), so my immediate thought was about our "Juvenile Curriculum collection" and the picture book collection there. I wanted to let you know that this is one of the books I recommended, along with some others I've found recommended here. I've learned a lot by browsing through this blog. Thank you for the work you do.Teresa Huffman Traverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953058073328300038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27760240.post-79717427431769282892016-03-01T20:37:28.083-06:002016-03-01T20:37:28.083-06:00Beautiful, beautiful book!

TFC has a great "recommended" list, and lots of important articles, reviews and essays as well. And you can read on the TFC website why to boycott Amazon.<br /><br />And, Debbie, great congratulations and hugs to Liz for me! I remember (not so long ago) when she was in the fifth grade, a budding activist. So smart and caring and bound to do great things. Mom and Pop and Grandparents and all the relatives did good.Beverly Slapinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12822325956522105620noreply@blogger.com
