Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I'm a sixth grade Reading and Language Arts teacher from New Jersey, who put in 20+ years teaching third and fourth grade. "Teach with Picture Books" is my top visited blog, and a favorite for teachers looking to integrate picture books into classroom instruction. I love both picture books and novels (I've got a blog for those as well), and I regularly conduct workshops for teachers on how to use literature of all kinds effectively in the classroom. Drop me a line and let me know your best loved books; I'm always looking for new favorites myself! Find me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/keithschoch.

Greetings Keith,
I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight. If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,
Mike McQueen
