Hi,
I just wanted to share with all those school librarians out there
lurking, that library media specialist and children's author Toni Buzzeo
has a new picture book out from Upstart entitled THE LIBRARY DOORS,
charmingly illustrated by Nadine Bernard Westcott.
It is a remake of the familiar song, "The Wheels on the Bus." This
time, though, it's not the wheels going round and round but the library
doors swinging OPEN AND SHUT while the patrons COME AND GO and perform
so many other familiar library activities, so it will be fun to sing.
Great for kindergarten rhyming and pattern units.
AND for the older students, Toni has created a PARTS OF A BOOK
PowerPoint to accompany the book. She created it at two levels so that
you can use it with very young primary students (Pre-K to K) or with
older students (Grades 1-3). When using it with the little ones, you
can simply delete the more detailed slides. You can find the link on
Toni's website on THE LIBRARY DOORS page at
http://www.tonibuzzeo.com/bookslibrarydoors.html.
One not to be missed!
