Quotable

"What the world of tomorrow will be like is greatly dependent on the power of imagination in those who are learning to read today." -- Astrid Lindgren

"At the moment that we persuade a child, any child, to cross that threshold, that magic threshold into a library, we change their lives forever, for the better." -- Barack Obama

This Made Me Laugh!

That’s a Great Idea!

Another terrific idea from our contest earlier this year! If you’d like to submit an idea to share with your colleagues, hit return and share!

“To promote reading: I do a video of all the new books when they come in. I lay them out on the floor by like genres and might talk about really popular titles. I show these to the students during checkout times.”

Christina Badowski, New Mountain Hill Elementary, Fortson, GA

GAETC – Stop by and see me!

I will be in the Bound to Stay Bound booth with the inimitable Ryan Jett during the Georgia Educational Technology Conference, November 5-7. Stop by and say hello and enter to win an Amazon Kindle Fire 7!

See you next week!
