So excited to share another site with you with information for the older sibling of your totz: ReaderKidZ! For 3 years, the readergirlz divas have been asking someone to come forward and spearhead a site with the middle grade reader in mind. These ladies have done just that. In fact they are focusing on picture books to grade 5.
Here's their Mission Statement:
Providing teachers, librarians, and parents with the resources and inspiration to foster a love of reading in kids, K-5.
So check them out and spread the news. There are several great features to explore like the Author in Residence and Tool Box. The layout is inviting and accessible. You are going to love it!
Here's to the authors/educators for running the work: Debbie Gonzales, Dianne White, Nancy Bo Flood, and Stephanie Green. Thanks, ladies, for contributing to literacy!
Note: ReaderKidZ operates independently from readergirlz and readertotz.
Welcome, ReaderKidZ! Your site looks fantastic! Lorie Ann and I are huge picture book fans and will look forward to keeping in touch. I second Lorie Ann's thanks to you all for your contribution to K-5 literacy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out, Joan and Lorie Ann. We're big fans of readertotz and this particular ReaderKid has been a fan of your site since the very beginning. :-)
