Actually all of us are winners, don't you think? I will do a wrap-up post here in a little bit, but I want to first say
THANK YOU!!
to everyone who hosted, wrote about, tweeted about, talked about, drew logos for, or sponsored a piece of our Share a Story - Shape a Future blog tour. It was a wonderful week, and I hope that you found encouragement, inspiration, or reassurance in your own reading journey and in helping children with theirs.
We had three other giveaways, to.
Tess Alfonsin, the Reading Countess, who is donating her book set to Morton Ranch Elementary. From Tess: "This school struggles to put books in the hands of their readers. It is a Title 1 school, and as such, money for books is at the low end of priorities for many families whose children attend the school. The dedicated staff and instructional leaders are inspirations to not only me, but to their student population. The school's phrase is: "a school worthy of your children." I think that says it all."
Cuyahoga Falls Public Library. From Eric: "This library has given my family so much over the past 4 years. The staff works so hard to provide a variety of programs for the residents of our city. I was recently talking to the head librarian and she is so proud of the efforts of her staff. It would be awesome for them to receive this donation!"
Thank you so much! I am excited that such a worthy school library will be benefit from the expansive collection from Reading Is Fundamental! Thank you, thank you again!
The Cuyahoga Falls Library was thrilled just to be nominated. They are going to be ecstatic to find out they won! I truly appreciate the opportunity to be a part of this event. It was a blast and I learned a lot from many talented people.
