Well today's Share a Story theme focuses on the gift of literacy. It is a wonderful follow-on to Donalyn's and Carol's discussions yesterday. Our hosts are Terry Doherty (Scrub-a-Dub-Tub), Dawn Little (Literacy Toolbox) and Chris Singer (Book Dads).
Chris has lots of dads ready to talk about reading with their kids; and that precious moment when you witness the moment a child realizes s/he is reading for themselves. Dawn and her guests will be talking about ways to share books as gifts, complete with some recommended titles. Terry will have a roundtable discussion with Mitali Perkins and Tanita Davis talking about multiculturalism in books and how other cultures view reading at home.
That's a lot to cover! And here are a few more topics you can help us with. Several of these lend themselves to visuals, so if you want to add photos or video go for it!
- If you could take your child(ren) and an all-time favorite book to a special place to read, where would it be and what would you read?
- Select a book that reminds you of someone in your life (adult, child, no matter). If you could give them a book, what would it be and why? What is it about the book that makes you connect the two?
- If you were asked to create a package of 5 books to gift to a child what books would you include in your gift? Include one book for each year (infant to 5)
1. Select the question(s) that resonates with you.
2. Find an old post or write a new one that answers the question. [Be sure to grab a Share a Story button from the sidebar to include in your new post!]
3. Come back here and link your post either via the inLinkz box or as a comment.
4. (optional) Tweet about your post and include @ShareaStory or the #SAS2011hashtag.
We'll be adding links for the questions all week, so there's no rush to have an answer the same day a question is posted ... unless you are entering a book giveaway contest. Learn more about that here.
