At the usborne Convention with Jim Trelease

It was a very long drive (18 hours there and 18 hours back) but it was well worth the excitement to hear Jim Trelease, the bestselling author of the Read Aloud Handbook at the Usborne Convention in Oklahoma. I was so happy to get my copy autographed. He is so nice in person!

You can read a bit about his talk on the importance of what it means for parents to build a nurturing read-aloud environment before children reach kindergarten age. I've posted the link at the New Teacher Resource Center - click here for the link.
